installed in the combo charger – .

The battery charge LED on the 7530 G2 lights up indicating that the unit has external power and battery charging may begin. It is safe to leave the 7530 G2 in the combo charger cradle while it is not in use – the battery will not be overcharged.

6.6.4 Charging The Spare Battery

•Install the battery with the latch facing towards the rear of the charger – slide it between the guide rails until it lightly latches in place.

The LED for the slot lights up immediately. A solid yellow LED indicates the battery is being charged. A flashing yellow LED indicates that the battery temperature is outside the acceptable charge range – between 5° C and 39° C (41° F to 102° F).

A fully discharged battery normally takes between 1.5 and 4 hours to charge. When the battery capacity reaches 75%, the LED flashes green. When the battery is at full capacity, the indicator turns solid green.

The combo charger stops applying power to the battery when it is fully charged – there is no risk of overcharge if the battery remains in the charge slot. The 75% charge indicator is handy if you need a quick recharge – a quick charge often takes less than one hour.
