Charging the Battery

wBefore you use the calibrator for the first time,
charge its battery pack for 2 hours. Due to safety
requirements, the battery must be charged outside
the calibrator.
Figure 8 shows how to remove the battery. Remove
the battery door and tap the calibrator with your hand
to get the battery out. Place the battery in the
charger and connect the charger to line power. The
charger automatically senses line voltage and
adjusts itself accordingly.
A discharged battery is fully charged in 2 hours or
less in fast-charge mode (steady indicator light on
the charger). Full charge is maintained after that time
in trickle-charge mode (blinking indicator light on the
charger). Switching between charging modes is
automatic. You can leave the battery pack on trickle
charge indefinitely without damage.

NOTE
When you remove a charged battery from
the charger, wait for the blinking indicator to
go off before you insert a discharged battery.
It takes about 2 seconds for the battery
charger to reset.
