• Do not disconnect the battery charger before the batteries
are completely recharged.
• Completely discharge and recharge your batteries at least
twice a month.
In any case, the most effective solution for avoiding memory
effect is to rotate the use of two sets of batteries, keeping one
charged set on hand while the other set is in use in the GPS.
To completely eliminate the memory effect on batteries,
discharge and recharge the batteries completely at least three
or four times before using them again.
Memory effect should not be confused with the normal life of the
batteries, which is on average 300-400 charge/discharge
cycles. It is normal for the operating power of the batteries to diminish as
the batteries begin to near the end of their life. When
this happens, substitute the entire set of batteries.
