NOTE:
• When only the lowermost indicator lamp blinks for either Battery 1 or Battery 2, this
means that the battery capacity is low, so the product does not operate. In these
cases, charge the battery that is low, or replace it with a fully charged battery. The
product does not operate when either of the batteries has run out.
• The indicated charge may be slightly lower than the actual level during use or im-
mediately after using the product.
