● About the Battery Capacity Lamp
The charge capacity of a battery that is charging can be
checked using the battery capacity indicator lamp.
The lamp's indications for the battery capacity are as
shown in Table 2.
NOTE
A short time after charging is complete, the battery
capacity lamp turns off .
● Regarding the temperature and charging time of the battery.
The temperatures and charging time will become as shown in the Table 3.

NOTE
The charging time may vary according to temperature
and power source voltage.
CAUTION
When the battery charger has been continuously used,
the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting
the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been
completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
4. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger fi rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use,
and then keep it.
CAUTION
○ If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has
been left for a long time in a location subject to direct
sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the
charge indicator lamp of the charger lights for 1 second,
does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for 0.5 seconds). In
such a case, fi rst let the battery cool, then start charging.
○ When the charge indicator lamp fl ickers (at 0.2-second
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger's battery connector. If there are no foreign
objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service
Center.
