Charging
1. Plug the battery charger into the proper AC volt-
age source. Charging lights will flash in green
color repeatedly.
2. Insert the battery cartridge into charger until it
stops while aligning the guide of charger.
3. When the battery cartridge is inserted, the
charging light color will change from green to
red and charging will begin. The charging light
will keep lighting up steadily during charging.
One red charging light indicates charged condi-
tion in 0–80 % and red and green ones indicate
80–100 %. The 80 % indication mentioned above
is approximate value. The indication may differ
according to battery temperature or battery
condition.

conditions of the battery cartridge, such as a battery cartridge which is new or has not been used for a long period
of time.
