DISCHARGE
This function is used to remove the memory effect. The battery is
discharged at the default (100mA) or at a higher selected rate until the
voltage reaches 0.9V. The battery will then automatically be recharged
at the default charging rate (200mA) or at a rate twice as high as the
selected discharge rate.
With the DISPLAY key, following can be viewed.
STAGE 1 :
DISCHARGE
The max. discharge
current of 500mA
has been selected
by the user.
STAGE 2 :
