Tips on charging
• It is recommended that you charge the battery while you are sleeping.
• Since the refresh charging process recharges after discharging all of its remaining elec-
tricity, it will take a long time if you perform it on a battery with a high residual capacity. It is
recommended that you perform a refresh charging on a battery that is drained as much as
possible.
• Standby mode may be activated, and the charge indicator lamp may ash green once per
second if the ambient temperature changes while the charger is charging. When the tem-
perature is suitable for charging, the charge indicator lamp will stop ashing and remain on
green, and the charging operation will automatically re-start.
• If standby conditions continue for a long time, the charge indicator lamp will start ashing
green rapidly (ve times per second) and the charging operation will be terminated.
If this happens, unplug the charging plug and the power plug. Re-locate the charger in ac-
cordance with “8.4. How to Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride Battery (JWB2)”, and try to
charge the battery again.
• The charger protection function may be activated by a change in the ambient temperature
even while charging is in progress. In this case, the charge indicator lamp will ash red and
the charger will stop charging.
If this happens, unplug the charging plug and the power plug. Re-locate the charger in ac-
cordance with “8.4. How to Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride Battery (JWB2)”, and try to
charge the battery again.
