Charging
*Your new battery cartridge is not charged.
You will need to charge it before use. Use
the high capacity battery charger Model
DC1801 to charge the battery cartridge.
Plug the high capacity battery charger into
the proper A.C. voltage source. The charg-
ing light will flash in green color.
*Insert the battery cartridge
so
that the
plus and minus terminals on the battery
cartridge are on the same sides as their
respective markings on the high capacity
battery charger. Insert the cartridge fully
into the port
so
that
it
rests on the charger port floor.
When the battery cartridge is inserted, the charging light color
will
change from green to
red and charging will begin. The charging light will remain
lit
steadily during charging.
When the charging light color changes from red to green, the charging cycle is complete
and the charger will switch into its ”trickle charge (maintenance charge)” mode. The
charging time is approximately one hour.
After charging, unplug the charger from the power source.

a
long period of time, it may not accept
a
full charge. This is a normal condition and
does not indicate
a
problem. You can recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging
it
completely and recharging
a
couple of times.
