Conditioning

From time to time you may need to condition (discharge) a battery. You would only do so if a battery provides a noticeably shorter run time (less than 50% of normal capacity).

IMPORTANT:

Don’t condition your batteries too often or they will wear out prematurely.

1 Insert one or two batteries in the battery charger slots.

2 Press the Condition buttons associated with the batteries that you wish to condition.

The battery will first be conditioned, then charged. The whole process can take up to 5 1/2 hours.

3 Remove the batteries from the battery charger when the lights turn green.

You can condition a battery in one slot while charging a battery in the other.
