(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after
use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after
use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate,
and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the
battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a
while.
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 pilot lamp of the charger lights for
1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for
0.5 seconds). In such a case, first let the battery
cool, then start charging.
When the pilot lamp flickers (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.
Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3
seconds to confirm that the battery being charged
with UC10SFL is taken out, wait for a minimum of
3 seconds before reinserting it to continue charging.
If the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the
battery may not be properly charged.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
1. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the
screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure
to do so could result in serious hazard.
2. Cleaning of the charger
When the charger is stained, wipe with a soft dry
cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do
not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner,
for they melt plastics.
3. Store idle charger
When not in use, the charger should be stored in
dry, high or locked-up place — out of reach of
children.
