battery manufacturer for the maximum charge rate applicable to your battery.

6. Do not allow water, moisture or foreign objects into the charger and use in a well venti­lated area

7. Do not place the battery or charger on or near a ammable object while in use. Keep
away from carpets, cluttered workbenches, etc.

※ The charge voltage setup

When the charge or discharge of lithium battery is

started without connecting the balance board to the

balance port of the charger.

When the charge or discharge of lithium battery is
started with connecting the balance cable to the bal­ance port of the charger.

LiPo = 3.7V~4.3V LiIon = 3.6V~4.1V LiFe = 3.2V~3.7V

For safety purposes, this charger is designed to automatically deliver 1C charge rate

to lithium batteries Example : LiPo cell of 1500mAh capacity : 1C = 1500mAh ( = 1.5A )

The maximum voltage for LiIon is 4.1V per cell, LiPo is 4.2V per cell and LiFe is 3.7V
per cell. Therefore, it is extremely important to choose the correct battery type to be

charged, as each Lithium battery has the different voltage level. Otherwise, it may
cause very serious damage to the batteries and increase the risk of a re !

When the circuit of the charger has a problem

When voltage per cell is too high during balancing

When battery cell voltage is low or battery cells are

short-circuited during balancing

When balancer port is removed during balancing

When wrong voltage is set, or battery is over dis­charged, while charging Lithium or Pb battery.

When the charger starts charging, discharging, or

cycle for NiCd/MH, or Pb battery with connecting the

balancing cable to the balancing port of the charger

◎ NEW BATTERY CHARGE

When the new NiCd/ NiMH are charged at the rst time, charge process might be termi­nated within minutes, it is not because charger or battery have a problem, but because

battery is not stabilized yet. In this case, you need to charge battery after increasing the

delta peak value or to charge battery after discharging and cooling down battery.

Do not use the battery, if the charged capacity of battery exceeds battery capacity in

specication. If such a phenomenon arises, repeat to charge and discharge more over 5

times and charge again. Such a phenomenon might arise till the third time charge.

◎ BATTERY CHARGE TIME CALCULATION

If you know the battery capacity, you may estimate charge time approximately

Ex) If 7.2V 2000mAh NiCd battery is charged with 3.0V, charge time is (2.0/3.0)x60, approx

40 minutes It is just for your reference, not the correct time

Charge time (minute) = [ Capacity (Ah) / Charge current (A) ] x 60

◎ LiIon, LiPo, LiFe BATTREIES SAFETY

1. Always charge the batteries that have Lithium ion or Lithium polymer mark and do not
charge the batteries that have Lithium mark. Failure to do so will damage the batteries
and may cause re or personal injury.

2. Always charge the batteries that the cell voltage ( 3.3V / 3.6V / 3.7V ) is written

3. Ensure that the charger and battery are placed on a non-ammable surface whilst

charging.

4. Never charge Lithium ion/Polymer/Fe batteries inside a vehicle whatever the circum­stances.

5. Always ensure that the charger is correctly set for the battery being charged, checking

both voltage and capacity. Be particularly careful if using a series/parallel battery pack,

or if using packs of different specications with the same charger.

6. Never charge at a rate higher than that recommended by the cell manufacturer, this can
be very dangerous.

7. Do not leave Lithium ion/Polymer/Fe batteries unattended whilst they are charging. Mon­itoring the batteries during charging is very important.

8. Always monitor the temperature of the battery being charged every few minutes. If the
battery becomes hot to the touch, disconnect it from the charger immediately and allow

to cool. Do not recommence charging until the battery and charger have been checked

for compatibility and the charger settings have been conrmed as being correct.

9. In the unlikely event of the Lithium ion/Polymer/Fe battery catching re DO NOT use
water to attempt to put the re out, instead use sand or a re extinguisher designed for
electrical res.

10. When used correctly, Lithium ion/Polymer/Fe battery packs are as safe as any other

type of rechargeable battery pack. However they do require different charge regimes

to the longer established Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride technologies and

have the potential of catching re if severely mistreated.

11. If Lithium Polymer battery packs are short-circuited or severely over-charged elemental

Lithium may be deposited internally, and if the battery pouch is damaged this can es-

cape from inside the battery. If this occurs a re may be caused, as elemental Lithium
is highly reactive when exposed to water or moisture, producing ammable hydrogen

gas and corrosive fumes. Elemental Lithium is not produced unless the battery pack is

severely mistreated, so in normal usage there is no likelihood of explosion or re.

12. Lithium Ion/Polymer battery packs must NEVER be discharged below 3 volts per cell

(LiFe 2.0V) as this will result in damage to the cells. If the voltage is allowed to drop
below 3 volts per cell the battery voltage may seem to recover following a charge, but the

battery may not then give its full nominal capacity and a reduction in performance is likely

- allowing the voltage to drop below 3 volts per cell will invalidate all warranty claims.

13. Never charge Lithium Polymer battery packs at greater than 4.2V per cell, Lithium Ion

at 4.1V volts per cell or LiFe at greater than 3.7V per cell as this will cause irreversible
damage to the cells and will invalidate all warranty claims.

◎ Pb BATTERY SAFETY

Pb battery needs to be charged every day. If the charged capacity of battery is dropped

below 50%, this battery might not be recharged. The average charge time of Pb battery

◎ ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION NOTES

◎ SAFETY APPROVAL

14. Never charge Lithium battery packs above their maximum charge rate. This can dam­age the pack and can be dangerous. Generally, Lithium Polymer packs should not be

charged above 2C (2 x Capacity). However, some newer packs do allow charging at up
to 5C, but charging at these higher rates will reduce the life of the pack.

e.g Pack of 2500mAh capacity : 2C = 5000mAh = 5A max charge current.

15. Do not use discharge rates in excess of those specied with the battery pack as this
will result in a signicant drop in voltage under load and will dramatically reduce the
number of charge/discharge cycles the battery pack will give. If disposing of Lithium

battery packs ensure that the pack is fully discharged by using a light bulb, electric
motor or similar to completely discharge the pack.

16. Before charging any Lithium battery packs they should be closely inspected for any

damage, such as punctures in the sleeving or if the battery has swollen or expanded
in size. If any such damage is detected Do not charge, even if the battery otherwise
appears to be brand new.

17. Before commencing charging always double check the settings on the charger to
ensure it is set correctly for the battery pack to be charged. Using the wrong settings

is likely to result in damage to the battery pack being charged and could result in the

battery catching re.
