Battery (GM-BAT) specifications
In order to get maximum charging capacity with your Vscan
battery (GM-BAT), you should allow the battery to be fully
charged and then fully discharged at least three times. The unit
can be used as normal during these cycles. Once these initial
charging/discharging cycles are performed, the following is
applicable without reducing the life time of the battery:
• It is not necessary to completely discharge the battery
before re-charging it.
• It is possible to stop charging the battery before it is fully
charged, but the battery will then be discharged more
rapidly.
• It is possible to charge the battery several times each day, if
needed.
