Charging Tips - Kenwood KSC-32S Mode D'emploi

charGInG TIPs

Using the transceiver while charging its battery pack will
◆
interfere with correct charging.
If the operating time of a battery pack decreases although the
◆
battery pack is fully and correctly charged, the battery pack life
is over. Replace the battery pack.
The ambient temperature should be from 5°C to 40°C while
◆
charging is in progress.
When the ambient temperature is in the upper limits (close to
40°C), the charging time may become longer than normal.
The charging times provided are obtained when a battery
◆
pack discharged to 1 V/cell x 6 (Ni-MH) or 3 V/cell x 2 (Li-
ion) is charged at normal temperatures. This charging time
varies depending on the degree of discharge and the ambient
charging temperature.
This charger may be suitable to charge battery packs not listed
◆
herein, due to further technology development. Check your
transceiver Instruction Manual to confirm whether this charger
is suitable for your battery pack.
If the battery pack contacts are not properly mated with the
◆
charger terminals, the indicator may flashing red or may remain
unlit. To resolve this problem, reinsert the battery pack after
cleaning the battery pack contacts and the charger terminals.
Repeatedly recharging a fully charged battery pack, or almost
◆
fully charged pack, shortens its operating time. To resolve this
problem, use the pack until it is completely discharged, then
recharge the pack to full capacity (Ni-MH).
The battery life in charge/discharge cycles is approximately
◆
300. However, overcharging and excessive discharging
shortens the battery pack life.
When using this equipment near a radio or television, you may
◆
experience interference with reception.
