Inserting A Battery In The Single Battery Charger

The single battery charger is designed to charge a single battery. It has a DC IN socket and is equipped with one LED that indicates the status of the charge process.

7.8.1 Inserting A Battery In The Single Battery Charger

•Insert the DC power plug into the charger. Plug the pronged end of the power cable into an AC outlet.

•Install the battery, aligning the contacts on the battery with the contacts in the battery charge well.

7.8.2 Battery Charge Duration

It can take up to 4 hours to fully charge a battery. The single battery 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 well. The 75% charge indicator is handy if you need a quick recharge–a quick charge often takes less than one hour.

7.8.3 Charge Indicators–The LED

The LED on the top of the charger indicates battery charge progress.
