reached. If capacity
improvement is more than
5% over previous reading,
an additional cycle is
applied.

Function:
Exercises batteries to maintain optimum performance. This is the
recommended program for routine maintenance of batteries. It reconditions NiCd
and NiMH batteries that do not reach Target Capacity. Li-ion, Li-Ph and SLA
batteries are not reconditioned, only exercised. Batteries in use are typically cycled
every three months on Auto. If batteries are failing prematurely, increase the
frequency of service on the Auto program.
Sequence:
The battery is first cycled (charged and then discharged) to determine
it’s true capacity. If NiCd and NiMH batteries do not meet the target capacity at the
end of the discharge cycle, they are reconditioned to reduce battery memory.
Following recondition, the battery is cycled again to determine the recovered or
final capacity. The battery is fully charged when the program completes.
SLA, Li-ion and Li-Ph batteries are cycled once. If the target capacity is not
reached in the first cycle, it is cycled again. Recondition is not performed for Li-ion,
Li-Ph and SLA batteries.
