Charging Instructions
1. Insert 1 to 4 pieces of AA/AAA/C/D or 1 to 2 pieces of 9V cell rechargeable Ni-MH batteries into the
battery compartment.
2. Make correct contact for polarity ( + and – ) ; according to the sign in the battery compartment.
3. The charger will adjust the suitable charging current for AA/AAA/C/D/9V battery automatically.
4. For Using in indoor
