RECHARGING NI-MH BATTERY
1. To maximize the life of the battery, power is shut off after 10
minutes of non-use. Automatic shut off is bypassed when used
with the AC adapter/charger.
2. Battery icon will flash when the gauge needs to be recharged.
3. Turn off power. Only use the IMADA AC adapter/charger pro-
vided, AD120 for 115VAC, AD230 for 230VAC. Plug into the
correct AC output. It takes 10 hours to charge fully.
4. When the gauge is turned off, make sure the AC adapter/charger
is disconnected to avoid overcharging.
