sunlight.
Charging Prompt
Self- examination: When charging, ORANGE light twinkles for 1 second and goes out. That means the 1.
charger has passed its self-examination and it can charge the battery normally. If the light remains orange
or the red light twinkles, it means the charger can not pass its self-examination or charge the battery.
Trickle pre-charging: When the battery has been inserted into the charger and red light twinkles, which 2.
means the remnant voltage is low, the charger trickle charges the battery (pre-charging status), until the
battery reaches a certain electric quantity, then the charger automatically turns to normal charging. If the
red light stops twinkling, it means the remnant voltage meets a certain electric quantity, and the charger
will charge the battery normally.
