Page 6: Warnings And Safety Notes
3. Warnings and safety notes Never leave the charge unsupervised when it is connected to its power supply. If any malfunction is observed immediately terminate the process and refer to the operation manual. Keep away the unit from dust, damp, rain, heat, direct, sunshine and vibration. Do not dorp it. - Page 7 3. Warnings and safety notes - Batteries that require a different charge technique from NiCd, NiMH, Lilo, LiPo, LiFe or Pb. - Faulty or damaged battery. - Battery fitted with an integral charge circuit or a protection circuit. - Batteries installed in a device, or which are electrically linked to other components. - Batteries that are not expressly stated by the manufacturer to be suitable for the currents the charger delivers during the charge process.
- Page 8 3. Warnings and safety notes Discharging The typical purpose of discharge is to determine the residual capacity of the battery, or to lower the voltage of battery to a defined level. When you discharge the battery you also have to pay attention on the process same as charging. To avoid the battery becoming deepdischarged, set the final discharge voltage correctly.
