2.8 COMPLETION OF CHARGING
Charge completion is indicated by the CHARGED (green) LED; when lit,
the charger has stopped charging and switched to the Maintain Mode of
operation.
2.9 MAINTAIN MODE
When the CHARGED (green) LED is lit, the charger has started Maintain
Mode. This mode of operation is also known as Float-Mode Monitoring.
In this mode, the charger keeps the battery fully charged by delivering
a small current, when necessary. The voltage is maintained at a level
determined by the BATTERY TYPE selected.

BATTERY SIzE or BATTERY TYPE button), the charging process will be
restarted.

time. Keep the area near the charger clear of obstructions to allow the fan
