CHARGING A BATTERY PACK
See Figure 77.
Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to
prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge
them before first use. If the garage door opener does not
charge the battery pack under normal circumstances, return
both the battery pack and garage door opener to your nearest
repair center for electrical check.
Connect the garage door opener to an AC power supply.
Install battery pack into the garage door opener as
described earlier.
Press on the battery pack to be sure contacts on the
battery pack engage properly with contacts in the garage
door opener.
The battery pack may become slightly warm to the touch
while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.
When the battery pack is fully charged, you may remove
the battery pack or leave it in the battery port to provide
DC power if needed.
