Universal Camcorder Battery Charger
23-348]
Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack Universal Camcorder Battery Charger. Your charger uses advance d technolog y to charge and discharge your camcorder’s rechargeable battery, and is compatible with many model battery packs (see the battery chart on Page 1).
To prevent your camcorder’s battery from losing its ability to fully recharge, you must condition Ni-Cd and Ni-MH battery packs by discharging them every time you recharge them. (Lithium Ion battery packs for digital camcorders and digital cameras do not need to be discharged.) Normal battery chargers can only recharge a battery. This charger also lets you discharge your batteries, increasing your battery’s efficiency and durabilit y (see “Discharging a Rechargeable Battery” on Page 3).
Included items:
• Universal Battery Charger (6V)
• Additional Charging Adapters (3.6V,
4.8V, 7.2V)
• 120V AC Adapter
• Cigarette Lighter Adapter

Your charge r’s main unit is designed to charge 6V rechargeable batteries. You can also charge 3.6V, 4.8V, and 7.2V rechargeable batteries using the supplied charging adapters. (The voltage is marked on the adapter.) You must remove any connected adapter before mounting another one.
Cautions:
• Charge only one rec hargeab le batt ery at a time.
• Do not try to mount a non-rechargeable battery on the charger, as it might damage the battery contacts.
• Do not try to charge non-rechargeable batteries, as they could explode.
