Charger (Esc3) Indicator Lamps - Yamaha NAVIGO Owner's Manual

TIP Tips on charging
• It is recommended that you charge the battery while you are sleeping.
• Since the refresh charging process recharges after discharging all of its remaining elec-
tricity, it will take a long time if you perform it on a battery with a high residual capacity. It is
recommended that you perform a refresh charging on a battery that is drained as much as
8
possible.

8.6. Charger (ESC3) Indicator Lamps

The charger (ESC3) for the nickel metal hydride battery has two types of lamps: the charge lamp (green)
and refresh lamp (orange). Each lamp comes on or flashes to indicate the battery and charging condi-
tions.
The lamp indications are explained in the following table.
TIP • Standby mode may be activated, and the charge indicator lamp may flash green once per
second if the ambient temperature changes while the charger is charging. When the tem-
perature is suitable for charging, the charge indicator lamp will stop flashing and remain on
green, and the charging operation will automatically re-start.
• If standby conditions continue for a long time, the charge indicator lamp will start flashing
green rapidly (five times per second) and the charging operation will be terminated.
If this happens, unplug the charging plug and the power plug. Re-locate the charger in ac-
cordance with "8.4. How to Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride Battery (JWB2)", and try to
charge the battery again.
• The charger protection function may be activated by a change in the ambient temperature
even while charging is in progress. In this case, the charge indicator lamp will flash red and
the charger will stop charging.
If this happens, unplug the charging plug and the power plug. Re-locate the charger in ac-
cordance with "8.4. How to Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride Battery (JWB2)", and try to
charge the battery again.
