2) Place the battery to be tested into the first slot.
3) The charge state indicator  shows the residual capacity/battery strength:
– Deflection to the right ("GOOD"): the battery has adequate residual capacity
– Deflection to the left ("DEAD"): the battery is uncharged/no longer useable. Recharge/dispose.
4) Note: battery testing does not interrupt charging of the other slots.
