Charging This Unit
When charging starts, the remaining battery power will be displayed on the LCD display.
Charging will stop automatically when the remaining battery power reaches 100 %.
If the internal temperature is high or low, the protection circuit may activate and stop the charging.
In such a case, leave it in an environment within the charging temperature range (0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F)) before attempting to re-charge.
The internal temperature will rise after power is supplied to the device and it may not be possible to charge the battery immediately.
To turn on/off the LCD display, press the [DISPLAY] button.
If the approved charging cables are not removed after the battery power reaches 100 %, charging will automatically resume after battery power drops below 95 %. The remaining battery power will gradually decrease, even if no output is connected.
The battery is not charged at the time of purchase. Make sure to charge the battery before using.
