Note New batteries need to be fully charged three times before you use them. This process takes approximately five or six hours-but you only need to do it once to condition the batteries. The next time you recharge your batteries, it takes approximately two and a half hours. Charging Batteries It's important to fully charge your batteries, so they will last as long as possible before they need recharging. WARNING Shock hazard. Make sure you use the charger only with EPSON rechargeable NiMH batteries (Model EU-24). To avoid the danger of leakage or explosion, do not place any other batteries in the charger. Read all safety and handling instructions on page 5 before using the charger. Follow these steps to charge your batteries for the first time: 1. Insert all four batteries, positioning the + and - ends as shown. + - 2. Connect the battery charger to its power cord, as shown. 3. Plug the charger into an electrical outlet. The charger light turns red, indicating that the charger is working. When the batteries are charged, after about two and a half hours, the light goes off. Note The charger light flashes to indicate changes in battery temperature and voltage. If the light continues to flash for more than half an hour, the batteries may be damaged or worn out, and should be replaced. Unplug the charger if the batteries are not fully charged after four hours. 4 - EPSON PhotoPC 850Z 8/99
