Press the

followed by the “CONFIRM (ENTER) / CANCEL(STOP)“
screen. The “CONFIRM/CANCEL“ screen displays the
number of cells detected by the processor as ”R” and the number of cells you set

the number of cells of the battery pack before proceeding.
DURING CHARGING/DISCHARGING, THE BATTERY SHOULD BE PLACED
INSIDE A FIRE PROOF/RETARDANT BAG AND ON A FIRE PROOF SURFACE
AWAY FROM OTHER COMBUSTIBLE OBJECTS.
Once charging has commenced, the charger will display
the following real-time information: battery type/cell
count, charging current, battery voltage, charging time and charged capacity.
If you are using a balance adaptor during charging, you
may press the
+
button to view the voltage of each
individual cell. You can also view a variety of other information as detailed later
in this manual.
Once the battery has reached storage level, the screen will read “STORAGE
FINISHED” and the charger will emit a chiming sound. Press the
■
button to
return to the setup screen. You may also press the
■
button at any time during
the process to stop.
Lithium Discharge Mode:
If you plan to discharge your battery to reach safe storage levels, we strongly
recommend that you use Storage Mode. In very few instances, discharging may
become necessary with LiPo batteries. One such instance may include preparing
a battery for disposal, in which case the battery should not be completely
discharged. Be sure to follow the discharging instructions provided by the
battery manufacturer.
Over-discharging a battery can severely damage the
battery and may cause a fire or explosion.
