Ericsson LBI-38732D manual For Best Performance

FOR BEST PERFORMANCE

1.Charge battery to full capacity, 14 hours at the stand- ard C/10 rate (capacity X .10). For "rapid" chargers, allow additional time (2-3 hours) for "topping off" the charge after it switches from "fast" to "slow".

2.Use the battery soon and use as much of the battery capacity as possible or practical. A battery that is charged and discharged completely will maintain the longest running time capacity. Also, several charge/discharge cycles are recommended to bring a new battery up to its rated capacity.

3.Store and charge the batteries at room temperature 65°F to 75°F. Batteries that have been stored for over a month should be recharged before putting into service due to chemical self-discharge which occurs at a rate of approximately 1% per day. Do not charge cold batteries (40°F or below).

4.Reduced capacity or "memory effect" may result from repeated identical shallow discharge/full re- charge cycles. If such a condition is suspected, run the battery until the instrumentation loses all power, then fully recharge and discharge again. Repeat this cycle 3-4 times.
