Important Notes

5Operating Notes

1. You may safely remove the transmitter at any time before the charging cycle is completed.
2. You may safely charge the batteries inside the transmitter at any time, even before the batteries
are completely discharged.
3. At ambient temperatures above +40°C, the charger may overheat. As a result, the charging cycle
may take considerably longer or stop altogether (STATUS LED flashing red).
As soon as the ambient temperature drops below +40°C, the charging cycle will be resumed au-
tomatically (STATUS LED will be lit red).
4. If the batteries heat up to more than +60°C during a charging cycle (e.g., due to high ambient tem-
perature), the charging cycle will be stopped automatically (STATUS LED flashing red). Most bat-
teries will be unusable after being heated up to more than +60°C.
5. Excessive vibrations may cause the charging cycle to be stopped (STATUS LED flashing red),
restarted (STATUS LED is lit orange), or appear completed (STATUS LED lit green) ahead of time.
Make sure the charger will not be subjected to vibrations during the charging cycle and will rest
firmly on a hard surface.
6. Items 1 and 2 above notwithstanding, if you wish to extend the useful life of rechargeable batter-
ies be sure to
• completely discharge the batteries every time, i.e., not to charge the batteries before the bat-
tery warning appears on the transmitter display;
• charge the batteries to capacity every time, i.e., not to remove them from the charger before
the charging cycle is completed;
• avoid charging batteries at temperatures below +5°C or above +40°C. At such temperatures,
the charging cycle will not start and the STATUS LED will be lit orange.
The charging cycle will be resumed automatically as soon as the battery temperature returns
to the acceptable range.
• use no batteries other than the rechargeable types recommended in section 9 Specifications.
7. Rechargeable batteries will only reach their full capacity after several charging cycles.
8. If a transmitter with fully charged batteries and another one with dead batteries are in the charg-
ing slots, the charging cycle may take up to ten hours.
9. If you insert a transmitter with a dry battery into the charger, the charging cycle will be stopped
immediately after the battery test and a few minutes of charging. The STATUS LED will start flash-
ing red.
