FLASHING RED – indicates that the battery is unchargeable. This could be the result of a loss of contact between the battery and the charger. Charging resumes when the condition causing this indication is corrected.

Motorola Smart batteries have an internal memory device that is read by the Motorola IMPRES Adaptive Charger. If an IMPRES battery is charged for more than 2-1/2 minutes, the IMPRES Adaptive Charger retains the serial number of the IMPRES battery. The IMPRES battery may be removed from the charger for up to 30 minutes. Once the bat- tery is reinserted back into the charger, it will resume the charging pro- cess from that point from when the battery was first removed.

Manually Reconditioning the Battery

Within 2-1/2 minutes of the initial insertion of an IMPRES battery

(STEADY RED indication), remove and reinsert the battery within 5 seconds to manually force reconditioning to occur. The charger indica- tor changes from a STEADY RED to a STEADY YELLOW. This forces the charger to recondition and automatically recharge the battery.

NOTE:

Excessive use of this feature reduces the cycle life of the battery.

Automatically Reconditioning the Battery

The Motorola IMPRES Adaptive Charger, when used in conjunction with a Motorola IMPRES battery, has the ability to determine when it is appropriate to recondition the battery.

When an IMPRES battery is properly inserted into the charger, the charger determines if it is appropriate to recondition the battery. If the battery needs reconditioning, the charger automatically indicates a STEADY YELLOW. This process may take up to 8 hours or more to complete, depending upon the state of charge and capacity rating of the battery when it is inserted.

It is important to note, for this process to be effective, the battery must be allowed to complete the recondition/recharge process. Leave the battery in the charger until the charger indicates a

STEADY GREEN.
