Low voltage charging:
If the battery has been stored with little to no charge for
a long period of time, the charger will go into recovery
mode, which will take more time to fully charge the
battery. This will enhance the life of the battery. Once it
is fully charged, the next charge will return to standard
charging.
A fully discharged battery pack will require the allotted
time as stated in the battery manual. Plug the charger
into an AC power outlet.
Insert the battery -into the charger.
This is a diagnostic charger. The Charger LED Lights will
illuminate in specific order to communicate the current
battery status.
False defect note:
When the battery is inserted into the charger and the
status LED blinks RED, remove the battery from the
charger for 1 minute, then reinsert. If the status LED
blinks GREEN, then the battery is properly charging. If
the status LED is still blinking RED, remove the battery
and unplug the charger for 1 minute. After 1 minute,
plug in the charger and reinsert the battery. If the status
LED blinks GREEN, then the battery is properly charging.
If the status LED is still blinking RED, the battery is
defective and needs to be replaced
