Figure 1 Phase I ­ Initial Charge: All 3 LED's flashing in sequence from MED (left) to MAX (right) (see diagram 2). If the battery is low, this will be the first charge phase. With high capacity batteries, this phase can sometimes be the longest of the 3 phases. [. . . ] Each of the adapter plates is labeled as to the batteries it can work with. If the charger base does not already have the adapter plate you want attached, you will need to remove the adapter plate first by pushing down on the plate and sliding it to the rear of the charger base (away from the LED indicators). Then, attach the selected adapter plate to the charger unit by aligning the slots on the adapter plate bottom with the fingers on the charger base. While pressing down lightly on the adapter plate, slide the plate toward the front of the charger base until it locks (see figure 1). CHARGING YOUR BATTERY StandBy Mode: Without any battery installed, the charger will flash the LED on the left, marked MED, indicating that the charger is standing by and waiting for a battery to be connected (see diagram 1). Phase III ­ HI Charge: The MED and HI LED's are on and the MAX LED is flashing (see diagram 4). At this point the battery is typically, about 70% charged. Diagram 1 Standby Flashing MED Off HI Off MAX Diagram 4 Phase III Charge Complete ­ MAX Charge: All three LED's are on at the same time (see diagram 5). Charging has completed and the battery is fully charged. It is recommended to remove the battery at this time.
