Battery Charging

To fully charge the battery, connect the instrument to the external DC charger
without activating the power on process. The length of time it takes to recharge it
depends on the condition of the battery. If they are very low the recharging period is
about 5 hours. The CHARGER [4] indicator should remain lit.
When the battery charging process is completed with the instrument off, the fan
stops.
The instrument battery needs to be kept charged between 30% and 50% of its capacity
when not in use. The battery needs to be fully charged for best results. A fully charged
battery suffers temperature-related discharge. For example, at a room temperature of
°
20 C, it can lose up to 10% of its charge over 12 months.
