Discharging rechargeable batteries

The Discharging rechargeable batteries function can only be used with Ni-MH batteries.

The Discharging rechargeable batteries function should not be used with alkaline batteries or lithium batteries as it will completely drain the battery charge.

Use the Discharging rechargeable batteries function in the following situations:

•When the batteries only last for a short time after being charged normally

•When the batteries have not been used for a long period

•When you purchase new Ni-MH batteries

Do not use the Discharging rechargeable batteries function while using the AC power adapter and DC coupler. In these situations, the Ni-MH batteries will not be discharged due to the external power supply.
