START CHARGING THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES
Once a rechargeable battery is inserted after the transformer has been plugged into the power source, the battery voltage (for example, “1.39V”) will be displayed for 4 seconds. Then “200 mA Charge” (default mode) will be shown on LCD for another 4 seconds, indicating that charging with 200 mA is to be started if no alteration in setting is made.
Within this
Then within 8 seconds from the last key pressing, user may select the charging/ discharging current by pressing the CURRENT key.
Note:
The mode key shall first be pressed and held for about 1 second to activate the mode change. The subsequent pressing of the mode key will toggle between the “Charge”, “Discharge”, “Test” and “Refresh” mode.

During charging, the different displays- Charging current (in mA), Time elapsed (in hh:mm), Terminal voltage (in V) and Accumulated capacities (in mAh or Ah) may be toggled and selected by pressing the DISPLAY key (refer Table 4).
After the rechargeable battery is fully charged, “Full” will be shown on the display and the user may take out them at this time. If the rechargeable batteries are left in place in the compartments, trickle charging will start. The trickle charging current is around 5% of the selected charging current to keep the rechargeable batteries full.

Note :
The current cannot be altered once the setting has been confirmed in the initial stage. This prevents the user from changing the current setting accidentally while setting other rechargeable batteries. If one wants to change the applied current afterward, the rechargeable batteries must be taken out and inserted again.
The maximum charging current of the other rechargeable batteries is restricted by the current setting of the first inserted rechargeable battery. For instance, if the first inserted rechargeable battery is set to charge at 700 mA, then the second, third and
