Figure 1: Self-Calibration and Recondition Icon
NOTE: IMPRES batteries with the Self-Calibration and Recondition icon on the battery label, do not
require periodic calibration and recondition, when docked into this IMPRES charger.
1.4.1
Terminating Calibration and Recondition Manually
You can manually terminate calibration and recondition during the process.
Procedure:
1. Remove the battery from the charger pocket.
2. Reinsert the battery into the charger pocket within 5 seconds.
Result: Battery calibration and recondition immediately terminate. Normal battery charging starts. The LED
indicates charge status.
1.4.2
Initiating Calibration and Recondition Manually
Although calibration or recondition is automatic, you may be required to manually initiate calibration or
recondition in certain situations.
Procedure:
1. Insert the battery into the charger pocket.
2. Remove the battery from the charger pocket.
3. Reinsert the battery into the charger pocket within 5 seconds.
Calibration and recondition starts immediately, beginning with battery discharge indicated by a steady
amber LED status. Calibration and recondition are complete only after a full charge indicated by a
steady green LED status. See
NOTE: This process can take up to 12 hours or more to complete, depending on the charging
status and battery capacity. Interruption of either the discharge phase or the full charge phase
delays calibration until the next charging opportunity.
1.5
IMPRES End of Service Life LED Indication
The IMPRES charger may indicate IMPRES battery end of service. Alternating red and green LED status can
appear to show End of Service Life.
Normal usage of the batteries reduces the available capacity. After a successful completion of calibration and
recondition, IMPRES charger compares IMPRES battery capacity to the battery rated capacity. When the
capacity is at a low value, the IMPRES battery may be nearing its end of service.
