3. Notification of Battery Degradation

• If all of the battery capacity lamps are not on when the capacity indication button is pressed after charging, this
means that the battery has become degraded and its capacity has decreased. (Depending on the condition of the
battery, the capacity lamps may return to the original display after subsequent chargings.)
• Judge the need for replacing the battery with a new one by using the table below as a guide for the degree of
