Recharging a
Rechargeable
Battery Pak
The battery charger fully charges a connected SLA battery within 10 hours. The
charger applies a high-level, fast charge for the first 10 hours that the battery is
connected. If the battery remains connected, the battery charger applies a low-
level trickle-charge to maintain a full charge.
To charge a battery:
1. Connect the battery charger to an appropriate ac power source (100 to
240 Vac, 50 or 60 Hz).
2. Connect the battery to the battery charger.
3. Confirm that the
CHARGE LED is amber. This indicates that the battery
charger is applying a fast charge.
4. Wait at least 10 hours. Then, confirm that the CHARGE LED is green. The
green LED indicates that the fast-charge cycle is complete and that the
battery is receiving a trickle-charge to maintain full charge.
5. Disconnect the battery.
