Charging A Spare Battery

The LED on the WORKABOUT PRO lights up indicating that the unit has external power and battery charging will begin. It is safe to leave the unit in the desktop docking station while it is not in use–the battery will not be overcharged.

7.5.2 Charging A Spare Battery

•Insert the battery in the spare battery charge well at the back of the docking station, aligning the contacts on the battery with the contacts in the spare battery charge well.

7.5.3 Battery Charge Duration

A fully discharged battery can take up to 5 hours to charge. The desktop docking station stops applying power to the battery when it is fully charged–there is no risk of overcharge if the battery remains in the charge well.

The desktop docking station is equipped with a single dual-coloured LED indicator in the lower-right corner of the front panel.
