If a battery does not reflect normal conditions and it is not currently under reconditioning, run the Recondition

function before you replace the battery. See Reconditioning a Battery (CLU).

Reconditioning fully discharges, then fully recharges the battery. During reconditioning, if the Adaptive Writeback

Cache function is enabled, the controller cache is set to

Write Thru

. After reconditioning, the cache is reset to

Wr

ite Back. See “Making Controller Settings (CLU)” on page 422.

If a battery reaches the threshold temperature while charging or discharging, the charge or discharge pauses

and the blower runs at high speed until the battery temperature falls below the threshold.

If the battery does not maintain normal values after a Recondition, replace the battery. See “Replacing a Cache

Backup Battery” on page 542.
