d) Parameters of the Charging Programmes
1. Rechargeable battery chemistry („BATT-TYPE“)
According to the voltage of the inserted rechargeable battery, the rechargeable battery chemistry NiMH/Cd or NiZn
mode is suggested. E.g. at deep discharged NiZn rechargeable batteries, the rechargeable battery chemistry may
needtobechosenmanuallyandconrmedwith„OK“.
Separate selection for the left (S1/S3/S5/S7) and right (S2/S4/S6/S8) charging chutes is possible.
Observe that the left and right charging chutes respectively must only contain rechargeable batteries of the
same rechargeable battery chemistry. This selection now applies for the other rechargeable batteries in the
charging chutes on the same side. A change is only possible if all rechargeable batteries on the same side
havebeenremovedrst.
