ABORTED CHARGE
If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging
aborts, the charger's output is shut off, the GREEN LED will flash, and the display
will show CHARGING ABORTED BAD BATTERY. To reset after an aborted
charge, unplug the charger from the outlet, wait a few moments and plug it back in.
FAN
Your charger is equipped with a fan. It is normal for the fan to run while the
charger is charging. Keep the area near the charger free of obstructions, to allow
the fan to operate efficiently.
