FIVA’s 
lamp lights amber when charging starts, and turns green
when charging is complete. If the 
lamp goes out during charging, it can mean that FIVA’s protection circuit has cancelled the charge operation. If this happens, remove the battery pack from FIVA and
then reattach it to resume charging. The 
lamp going out frequently during charging indicates malfunction, and you should contact your original dealer or authorized distributor.

Important 
•If the battery pack is attached to FIVA, do not unplug the AC
adaptor until the 
indicator lamp turns green (full charge). This helps to extend battery pack life.
•The battery pack requires period replacement. The end of a battery pack’s service life is indicated when the battery pack powers FIVA for a relatively short period after a full charge. When this happens, replace the battery pack with a new one.
•Locate the AC adaptor power cord in a place where it will not be tripped over.
•Charge the battery pack in an area where the temperature is within the range of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F). The battery pack may fail
to reach a full charge at temperatures outside this range. In this
case the 
indicator lamp does not light.
