INTRODUCTION
The Technology Solutions 1136 4-Slot Battery Charger is intended for charging Varta Microbattery’s EasyPack (EZPack L and EZPack XL) rechargeable Li-Polymer battery packs. The charger can charge up to four batteries simultaneously. The four batteries can all be the same type, or can be two of each type. The charger senses which type of battery has been inserted and adjusts the charge rate accordingly. There is an individual charge status indicator for each battery slot. The charger also monitors the temperature of each battery pack and adjusts the charge rate to provide optimal charge rate whilst maintaining safe battery temperature.
The 1136 Battery Charger is powered by a Motorola 12 V power supply, part number 50-14000-148R or PWRS­14000-148C.

INSERTING AND REMOVING THE BATTERY RETAINING CLIPS
FIGURE 2: Inserting the battery retaining clips
The battery retaining clips are required to hold the battery in position during charge. The clips do not determine the charge rate, but if they are not correctly positioned then the battery will not make the necessary electrical contact and will not be charged. It is possible to have the front and back battery compartments set for the same or different battery packs. It does not matter which compartment is set for which battery type.
The clips can be inserted in one of two slots. The front slot (nearest the charge status indicator) is for the smaller EasyPack L battery. The rear slot (furthest from the charge status indicator) is for the larger EasyPack XL battery. Insert the clip with the hook at the top nearest the charge status indicator.
Push the clip vertically downwards into the appropriate slot. When it is fully inserted it will click and lock into place.
If the clip needs to be moved to reconfigure the charger, pull it vertically upwards so that it releases and then lift it out of the charger.
Clip at front for EasyPack L
Clip at back for EasyPack XL
1) Align the battery retaining clip with
the required slot.
2) The hook at the top of battery retaining clip must face forwards towards the charge status indicator.
3) Push the battery retaining clip down until it clicks into position.
