Connect the battery charger to
a wall outlet (wall socket) using
the power cord (mains lead).
The CHARGE lamp lights up when
charging begins, and goes off when
charging is completed.
•
Even if the CHARGE lamp is not lit, the battery
charger is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the
wall outlet (wall socket). If some trouble occurs
while using the battery charger, immediately
shut off the power by disconnecting the plug
from the wall outlet (wall socket).
•
When charging is finished, disconnect the
power cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet
(wall socket), and remove the Nickel-Metal
Hydride batteries from the battery charger.
Charging time
This represents the time required to charge
fully depleted Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries using the supplied battery charger
in an environment where the ambient
temperature is 25°C (77°F).
•
It takes about six hours to completely charge
the batteries. The CHARGE lamp may remain
lit longer than six hours, but this is not a
malfunction.
•
If you use the BC-CSQ2 battery charger
supplied with the STAMINA “Super Quick
charge” kit (not supplied), the batteries will
charge faster.
Charging time for Size AAA Nickel-Metal
Hydride batteries
2 batteries: Approx. 1 hour 25 minutes
4 batteries: Approx. 2 hours 50 minutes
Notes on the Nickel-Metal
Hydride batteries
•
If the poles of the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries are dirty, the batteries may not charge
properly. Occasionally clean the poles of the
batteries and the terminals of the charger by
wiping them with a dry cloth.
•
Always use the supplied case when transporting
the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries. If the
positive and negative terminals come into
contact with metallic material and are shorted,
the batteries could overheat or catch fire.
•
At the time of purchase, or when the
Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries have not been
used for a long time, they may not fully charge.
This is typical of this type of battery, and is not
a malfunction. If this happens, repeatedly using
up the batteries fully, and then charging them,
should correct the problem.
•
Even when Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries are
not being used they lose their charge naturally
over time. It is recommended that you recharge
the batteries just before using them.
•
If you recharge Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
before fully using up the existing charge, the
low battery warning may be displayed sooner
than expected. This is called the “memory
effect.”* If this problem occurs, charging the
batteries only after using up the existing charge
will correct it.
* The “memory effect” – the situation in which
the capacity of the battery is temporarily
lowered.
•
Do not peel off the external seals or damage the
batteries. Never use batteries from which the
seals have been partially or completely
removed, or batteries that have been split in any
way. These may cause leakage, explosion, or
heat-up of the battery, and personal scald or
injury may be caused. These may cause a
malfunction of the battery charger.
