CARE OF RECHARGEABLE NI-CAD BATTERIES
ALWAYS DISPOSE OF BATTERIES PROPERLY
Always follow the battery manufactures recommendations for
Charging and disposing of Ni-cad batteries.
The following is meant as general information regarding Ni-cad batteries.
1. Occasionally allow the batteries to fully discharge before recharging. The battery indicator
showing less than two segments will indicate full discharge.
2. Always allow the battery to fully charge before using. This requires 10 hours with
the approved charger. (Ni-MH batteries require 16 hours for full charge.)
3. The above will prevent the batteries from developing “memory” which effectively reduces their
capacity.
4. It is better to store Ni-cad batteries that are discharged rather than charged.
Note: Do not charge any type of alkaline batteries in this unit.
