charging slots show the charge status of the individual batteries. In
addition, the current charge status of each battery is shown as a
percentage on the display 1 .
If the LED 2 on the charging slot blinks red for longer than 5 sec-
onds, the battery is either a non-rechargable battery or it is defective.
Charge indicator
The various displays have the following meanings:
The LED 2 flashes red and green once per second: The
batteries are being alternately charged and discharged. (Refresh-Func-
tion (This function resets the "accumulation state" of the accumulators):
older or long stored batteries are being refreshed.)
The LED 2 flashes green once per second: A deeply dis-
charged battery is being gently recharged with a reduced current.
The LED 2 glows constantly red: The batteries are being
charged with the maximum charge current.
The LED 2 glows constantly green: The batteries are fully
charged and the product has switched to trickle charge. In addition,
the current charge status of each battery is shown as a percentage on
the display 1 .
Calculating the average charging time
Depending on the type, age and remaining charge in the batteries,
the charging process can take various lengths of time. The average
charge time can be calculated using the following formula. Take note
however that the times given are only guiding values.
