COMMENTS
- *********To Slow Charge NiCd and NiMH Batteries*********
- A backup safety timer automatically shuts down the charge process after a certain time if the charger does not recognize that the battery has reached full charge. This timer can be shut OFF in the "Safety Timer On/Off" screen by pressing "BATT TYPE". This will allow NiCd or NiMH batteries to be slow charged. Leave set to "ON" when charging lithium batteries. This timer will reset to "ON" each time power is removed from charger.
