INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on purchasing your new Digital PortableReadPowerthisStationInstruction. Manual and follow the instructions carefully before using this unit.

CHARGING/RECHARGING

Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a full charge and long battery life. All batteries lose energy from selfdischarge over time and more rapidly at higher temperatures. Therefore, batteries need periodic charging to replace energy lost through self-discharge. When the unit is not in frequent use, manufacturer recommends the battery be recharged at least every 60 days.

IMPORTANT: If you attempt to use the unit when the unit’s battery charge level is too low, the unit will automatically shut down. Recharge the unit with all other functions turned off as soon as possible.

Notes: This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it before using it for the first time. Initial AC charge should be for 14 hours.

Recharging battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent heavy discharges between recharges and/or overcharging will reduce battery life. The battery can be recharged using the 120 Volt AC Charger.

Make sure all other unit functions are turned off during recharging, as this can slow the recharging process.
