The following steps will guide you through setting up a Lithium Chemistry Bat-
tery in a Charge Mode. These instructions apply to Charge, Balance Charge, Stor-

charge as it is the safest way to charge Lithium Batteries.
Now that you have set all the parameters for your battery you are ready to exe-
cute the operation. Now would be a good time to check to make sure the charge
settings are correct and within the battery manufacturers recommendations.
DURING CHARGING/DISCHARGING, THE BATTERY SHOULD BE PLACED
