• To charge batteries to their full capacity, new NiCd and NiMH batteries should be fully discharged
and charged three to five times.
• Let the batteries in the instrument discharge as much as possible. It prevents the so-called "memory
effect" with NiCd batteries.
• When using the vehicle adapter, always keep the motor running while charging the batteries.
Avoid sudden ambient temperature changes while charging the batteries (e.g. do not let the sun shine
directly on the batteries or on the charger). Sudden ambient temperature changes may cause the
charging process to end prematurely without having fully charged the batteries.
