c) Charging mode
Once a rechargeable battery is inserted after the power adapter has been plugged to the
power source, the battery voltage (for example, "1.39V") will be displayed for 4 seconds.
Then "200 mA Charge" will be shown on display for another 4 seconds if no alternation in
setting is made.
The default setting of the charger is in charging mode with 200mA charging current.
For faster charging, press "CURRENT" button to select charging current of 200, 500 or 700
mA. 200 mA is the default charging current of the charger.
The maximum charging current of other rechargeable batteries are restricted by
the current setting of the first inserted rechargeable battery. For instance, if the
first inserted rechargeable battery is set to charge at 500 mA, then the second,
third and fourth rechargeable batteries can be only set to charging at a maximum
current of 500 mA. Therefore, user is recommended to place the battery with the
highest expected charging current first. To release the restriction of charging
current limit, take out all four rechargeable batteries from the charging unit and
re-insert them.
Within 8-second time from inserting the batteries the user may first select
the operating mode by the "modE" button.
If "modE" or "CurrENt" button is not pressed for 8 seconds the
charging process will start. afterward, the charging current can no longer
be changed.
Press "DISPLAY" button to scroll through different displays, charging current (mA), battery
voltage (V), accumulated capacities (mAh) or time elapsed (hh:mm).

Charging time
The charging time can be determined by dividing the battery capacity by the selected
charging current.
For Example,
AA (Micro) battery with 2400mAh and selected charging current is 700mA.
(2400 ÷ 700) hour = 3.5 hour. = 3 hours 30 minutes charging time.
