Radio Shack 23-348 Owner's Manual

Universal Camcorder Battery Charger
23-348]
Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack
Universal Camcorder Battery Charger. Your
charger uses advanced technology to charge
and discharge your camcorder's
rechargeable battery, and is compatible with
many model battery packs (see the battery
chart on Page 1).
To prevent your camcorder's battery from
losing its ability to fully recharge, you must
condition Ni-Cd and Ni-MH battery packs by
discharging them every time you recharge
them. (Lithium Ion battery packs for digital
camcorders and digital cameras do not need
to be discharged.) Normal battery chargers
can only recharge a battery. This charger
also lets you discharge your batteries,
increasing your battery's efficiency and
durability (see "Discharging a Rechargeable
Battery" on Page 3).
Included items:
• Universal Battery Charger (6V)
• Additional Charging Adapters (3.6V,
4.8V, 7.2V)
• 120V AC Adapter
• Cigarette Lighter Adapter

Your charger's main unit is designed to
charge 6V rechargeable batteries. You can
also charge 3.6V, 4.8V, and 7.2V
rechargeable batteries using the supplied
charging adapters. (The voltage is marked on
the adapter.) You must remove any
connected adapter before mounting another
one.
Cautions:
• Charge only one rechargeable battery at
a time.
• Do not try to mount a non-rechargeable
battery on the charger, as it might
damage the battery contacts.
• Do not try to charge non-rechargeable
batteries, as they could explode.
Use this chart to determine which batteries
are compatible with your charger. Then see
the page indicated for connection and
charging instructions and follow the
instructions on Page 2 to connect AC or DC
power.
