This indicates a timer that counts backwards, the time displayed being the maximum time
allowed to charge the batteries. If the batteries are charged before that time has expired
(counted down to zero) charging will be terminated and the unit switched off automatically.
If it is necessary to terminate the charging cycle before the batteries are fully charged and the
unit has turned itself off, the charging cycle may be ended by pressing the X key.
Step 3 The charging process is a rapid cycle program and is automatic. It will terminate
when the batteries are fully charged. Once it is activated the automatic timer provides adequate
time for exhausted batteries to be fully charged. Hence it should not be necessary to re-run the
charging program once it has completed the process automatically.
NOTE: attaching the charger whilst the unit is turned off at the I/O switch (but the Main Power Switch
must
be ON) will automatically trickle-charge the batteries. IMPORTANT: if the unit is switched on at
the I/O button whilst the charger is attached, the unit will go into charge mode automatically (1
st
charging procedure).
• 3rd charging procedure (for completely exhausted NiCad / NiMH batteries DU will not
switch on)
Step 4 Make sure the Main Power Switch in the battery compartment is ON position.
Connect the charger power cord to the mains supply outlet socket. Make sure the socket is
‘live’. Leave the charger attached for a 30 minutes – applies to units D/1669 or later. The
charger will now charge the batteries. When the batteries have been charged sufficiently the
unit will automatically turn on and continue the charge cycle. If unit fails to switch on, disconnect
the charger, switch off (at switch) for 5 seconds, then on again – then proceed to 2nd charging
procedure, step 1 above.
WARNING! In all above procedures the main switch must be ON before
the charger is
attached..
NOTE: Attaching charger without batteries will start the detector in charge mode. Since there are no
batteries, they will not be charged. System will switch off in 4 hours or can be aborted by pressing the X
key.
If this has been done, disconnect the charger, switch the switch to OFF, insert batteries, switch to ON.
Then proceed to 2nd charging procedure, step 1 above.
