Ultratec PRO80 - Manual (Page 70)

Checking the Batteries
Over time, with normal use, the batteries lose their ability to hold a full charge. To be
sure that the batteries are fully charged, check them once a month.
1.
Unplug the AC adapter.
2. Turn on the Superprint Pro80 LVD for 15 minutes (you can still use it for calls
during this time).
3. If the Power light still glows steadily after 15 minutes, then the batteries are fine.
If the Power light begins to blink during this time, it is time to “exercise” the
batteries (see the next section).
Exercising the Batteries
1. Unplug the Superprint Pro80 LVD and turn it on.
2. Leave the Superprint Pro80 LVD this way until the Power light flashes.
3. Turn the power off and plug the Superprint Pro80 LVD back in for at least 24
hours.
4. Unplug the Superprint Pro80 LVD and turn it on.
5. Leave the Superprint Pro80 LVD this way for 15 minutes.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 until the Power light does not blink after 15 minutes of
being on without the power adapter plugged in.
7. Plug in the Superprint Pro80 LVD. It is now ready for use.
