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.

Automatic Switching — automatical-

ly switches to the charging mode when

discharging is completed.

Status Lights — show you the battery

conditioning/charging status.

Two Power Sources — let you power

the conditioner/charger using either

standard AC power or your vehicle's

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

not been used for long periods of time.
