Display LED on the charger:
To maintain the lifetime of the batteries, charging is temperature controlled and
only performed in a temperature range of 5 to 35 °C. When this temperature
range is left, the charging is automatically interrupted and automatically
continued after the temperature range has been reached again. The charging
time is typically 4 hours. A new NiMH power pack reaches its full capacity after
three complete load/unload cycles. Never store the instrument for extended
periods (maximum 2 months) without being connected to a power source, as
this drains the internal buffer battery.
