Note: Remember, any settings you change while in the Options Menu are automatically saved the instant
you make the change. You may Exit the menu at any time. You may also simply cycle power to the
charger to re-start, in which case the Welcome Screen will appear.

Alternate charging modes

Based on what the charger determines about charging conditions, it may enter one of these charging
modes automatically (as indicated in the display):

In Low Voltage Restore Mode, the charger automatically attempts to repair an over-discharged pack. Cells

discharged as low as 0.5V may be repaired to as much as 98% of capacity.

In Safety Charging Mode, the charger detects that at least one cell is seriously out of balance, and

automatically lowers charge current to 0.5A.

CAUTION: If the charger’s display shows

SAFETY CHARGING

during several attempts at charging,

the pack is damaged. Treat damaged packs with caution. Do not charge them on a flammable surface,
and do not charge them unattended. Never repeatedly START a charge on a pack that continuously
triggers

SAFETY CHARGING. Fire may result!

In Cold Weather Balancing Mode, unlike previous FMA chargers, the Cellpro 10XP does not

support reduced end of charge voltage based on ambient or operating temperature.

If the charger detects a problem, it will stop charging and display a safety code. If this happens:
1. Press

the

MODE button to reset the charger.

2.

Reconnect the battery properly.

3. Press

the

START/STOP button to continue charging.
