NOTES

The CHARGE indicator also serves as a rough estimate of the charge status. Continuously on: Battery pack fully charged.

Two quick flashes at 1-second intervals: Battery pack at least 50% charged. If the indicator flashes quickly but not exactly in this pattern, refer to

Troubleshooting ( 67).

One flash at 1-second intervals: Battery pack less than 50% charged.

We recommend that you prepare battery packs to last 2 to 3 times longer than you think you might need.
