Charging the EP10 Battery

• Insert the DC power plug into the RV4004 rear DC input receptacle.
The RV4004 supplies DC power to enable the EP10 internal fast charger. Normally, a full charge of the
battery will take from 3 to 4 hours.
• Insert up to four EP10s into the docking station charge wells, pressing down gently but firmly to seat
them securely.
• During the charge, the EP10 LED slow flashes green.
• When the battery capacity reaches 95%, the LED turns solid green.
Note: Battery charging continues whether the EP10 is switched on or off.

Installation

The charger can be wall mounted using the wall mount bracket (model number RV4007) or it can be oper-
ated on a flat surface. Install the charger in an area that is free from excessive dirt, dust and contaminants.
The ambient temperature must be in the range 0° C and 40° C (32° F to 104° F). The docking station will
not charge batteries outside of this temperature range. For maximum performance, it is recommended that
the charger be operated at room temperature – a temperature range between 18°C to 25°C (64° F to 77° F).
