Maintenance
As the unit continues to charge, current is supplied in pulses. This is indicated
by the flashing of the indicator. As the battery nears full charge, the flashing
slows down becoming nearly a constant green. When the battery is fully
charged, the indicator will be almost a constant green, flashing only about
once every 3-5 seconds to ensure the battery stays fully charged.
Note: The typical life expectancy of the battery is approximately 400-500 full
recharges. To prolong this and attain the maximum usage from the battery, it is
recommended the battery be recharged whenever it is not being used instead
of waiting until the battery is completely discharged. Completely draining the
battery will not shorten the life expectancy. However, recharging before fully
discharged will prolong the battery life.
CAUTION! Avoid excessively charging the batteries when the pipette is not
in use (excluding 16 channel pipettes). Excessive charge to the batteries will
shorten the battery life and may damage the batteries.
CAUTION! The battery pack and power supply for the 16 channel electronic
pipette is not interchangeable with the power supply and battery pack of other
electronic pipette models. The power jack/connector and battery connector
are different to prevent using them by mistake with other models.
