and it can deliver 2.5 A current. When connecting another adapter to
your P200-LCD, make sure it is provided with a 5.5/2.1 mm output
connector (plus inside, minus outside).
Charging of batteries
• Select the type of inserted batteries via the selector (5). In the
case of NiMH batteries, put the selector in the centre position, of
NiCd batteries to the left-limit stop and of RAM cells to the right-
limit stop.
• Insert the rechargeable batteries into the charging shafts (1). You
can recharge 1 to 4 cells at the same time. When charging Micro
and Mignon cells, you can additionally charge one 9V block bat-
tery in the charging shaft (6) that is intended for that purpose.
• It is not allowed to change over the selector (5) after you have
inserted the batteries. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction
of the battery charger and on the display will appear a mal-
function indication ("BAD").
• Now the battery charger automatically switches to the charging
mode. This mode is indicated by red flashing of the status LEDs
(2), which are over the respective charging shaft, and by the bar
display as well as by the "CHA" (for charge) indication on the dis-
play (4). NiCd batteries will be discharged first – "DIS" (discharge)
is seen on the display, the charging of batteries is indicated by the
(orange) status LEDs. The charging of 9 V block batteries is indi-
cated by the flashing of the status LED (7).
If you charge different types of cells simultaneously
or, if the selector switch has been positioned incor-
rectly, it could destroy the device and the batteries!
Do observe the polarity of the batteries. The correct
polarity is shown in the charging shaft.
