2. Connect the system to the AC power supply to charge the batteries until current capacity
is full.
3. Disconnect the system from the AC power supply to power the system by the batteries
until the system automatically shuts down.
4. The powering time of the batteries indicates the battery performance.
If the powering time of the battery is much shorter than that specified, you may replace the
battery or contact the service personnel.
