Conservation Of Charge; Battery Refreshing - Leica GKL122 User Manual

Conservation of charge

If batteries which have been
connected are fully charged, they
may remain connected. Conservation
of charge takes place in sequence so
that the battery self-discharge which
takes place for technical reasons, is
compensated and the batteries are
always available for use with their
full capacity.
Charger Professional Series GKL122-1.0.1eu

Battery refreshing

This function is available for all Leica
standard batteries, for all Leica
batteries with 5-pin charger plugs and
for camcorder batteries having three
contacts.
The refreshing function consists of
discharging the battery fully and then
re-charging it quickly.
We recommend using the refreshing
function on a battery two to three
times if its capacity drops noticeably.
