15.4.4. Formatting rechargeable battery pack
The indicator features a brand new battery pack comprising NiMH R6 (AA)
batteries and a power adapter. The batteries need formatting after first
powering up. It is crucial for batteries lifetime to undertake this process.
Formatting requires first full charging the batteries, followed by total
discharging (without meantime charging).
Procedure:
1. Supply the indicator from mains.
2. Charge batteries for 12 hours (charging time of 2200mAh batteries).
3. After 12 hours unplug from mains.
4. Use the device up to the moment of its automatic switch off due
to low battery level.
5. Repeat the process of charging starting from point 1.
Caution:
Batteries reach their optimal capacity after three cycles of full charging
and discharging.
