LR-300 Charging Batteries

The LR-300 and all Listen receivers are unique because they have SmartCharge™ chargers built in. When any of these units are connected to an LA-202 wall transformer or dropped into a Listen charging case, NiMH batteries will be charged.

1To charge the batteries using the LA-202 wall transformer, plug the transformer into the jack marked “PWR/CHG” on the side of the unit. The unit can be operated while the batteries are charging.

2To charge the batteries using a drop-in charger, simply place the unit into a slot in the charger and connect the charger to power. Make sure the unit is fully seated in its slot.

SmartCharge™ uses a pulse charging, which greatly extends the life of Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. The entire charging process takes 13 hours. Listen recommends that you allow the charger to complete its full cycle every time for maximum battery life.

NOTE: In order to charge NiMH batteries, the BATTERY SELECT switch in your Listen product must be set to the NiMH setting. Use a pen or small screwdriver to move the switch (located in the battery compartment) to the proper position.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHARGE ANY TYPE OF BATTERY OTHER THAN NiMH (NICKEL METAL HYDRIDE) with your Listen equipment. Alkaline batteries may explode when connected to a charger. Other risks of charging non-NiMH batteries include destruction of property or fire.

During the charge cycle, the red LED on top of the Listen product will flash slowly. When charging is completed, the LED will turn off. It is not necessary to unplug the charger; however, if you unplug the unit from the charger and then plug it back in, it will begin the 13-hour charge cycle over again.

When not using the LR-300, it is recommended to leave the unit on the charger. The charger provides a “maintenance” charge that keeps the battery at 100%. If the unit is not on the charger, the battery will lose up to 20% of its charge per month.

NOTE: Listen provides high performance constant current NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries. These may be purchased from your Listen dealer (ask for part number LA-362).
