fully. To prevent the fully charged battery from self-discharging
via the unplugged charger, it should be disconnected from the
charger after charging. If the battery was stored for more than
1 year, it must be fully recharged. If the battery was fully dischar-
ged, the charging indicator lamp

will flash rapidly at the start
of charging (twice per second). If the charging indicator lamp

still flashes rapidly after 10 minutes, a fault has occurred (see
8. Troubleshooting). If the error-LED
