Your Radio Shack Cellular Battery
Conditioner/Charger uses advanced
technology to charge and condition
various rechargeable cellular phone
batteries — such as Radio Shack 17-
1060/1061/1062, Motorola Micro Tac
and 9800 series, and Nokia 101/232.
To prevent your rechargeable battery
from losing its ability to fully recharge,
you must condition it (by discharging it)
about once every 10 times you re-
charge it. Most battery chargers can
only recharge a battery. Your Radio
Shack Cellular Battery Conditioner/
Charger lets you both discharge and
then recharge it, increasing your bat-
tery's efficiency and durability.
Its features include:
Battery Versatility — lets you re-
charge Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd) and
Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) re-
chargeable cellular phone batteries.
Built-In Discharge — lets you condi-
tion your rechargeable battery for the
longest life and best performance.

ly switches to the charging mode when
discharging is completed.

conditioning/charging status.
Two Power Sources — let you power
the conditioner/charger using either

battery power.
Interchangeable Charging Adapters
— let you recharge/condition various
types of rechargeable batteries, such
as Motorola Micro Tac series, Motorola
9800 series, Nokia 101, Nokia 232,
etc.
Quick/Slow Charge Selector — lets
you charge a battery either in the slow
mode for a longer lasting charge, or
the quick mode to begin using it more
quickly.
Trickle Charge — continuously charg-
es the battery with a 20–30 mA trickle
current after the batteries are fully
charged to ensure they are ready to
use at any time.
Short-Circuit/Overcharge/Deep-Dis-
charge Protection — protects your
battery from being damaged and pro-
longs its life.
Battery Condition Function — re-
freshes/activates batteries that have
