6.5.5. Charging the Battery
The X-SMART
Plus is powered by a rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery.

1.
Securely insert the plug of the AC adapter into a power supply
Connecting the AC adapter).
2.
The AC-IN lamp lights in green.
3.
The internal microcomputer checks the voltage of the batteries and starts charging, if
necessary. If the charging starts, the CHRG lamp lights up.
4.
When the CHRG lamp turns off, charging is completed.
NOTES
• There is no need to turn the power on to charge the battery.
The AC-IN lamp lights to indicate that the supply power is on. It does not go out even after
•
a charge is completed. See the CHRG lamp to check the charging conditions.
The standard charging time is about 5 hours, but it varies depending on use, condition of
•
the battery, temperature and whether the battery is new or old.
Older batteries may remarkably shorten both the charging and operating time.
• When charging, the temperature of the battery is measured.
Therefore, if this product is placed in an environment where the temperature changes
rapidly (for example, near to a window exposed to sunlight, near the outlet of an air
conditioner, or heater), the battery cannot be properly charged.
Store and charge this product in a place with low variations in temperature.
• The battery automatically charges when connected to the mains, even when the power is
on. But when the motor handpiece is in use, charging is suspended to protect the battery.
• In the following cases, it may not start charging:
The temperature of the battery is too low or too high (less than 0°C (32°F) or more
than 40°C (104°F)).
The voltage of the battery is sufficient (this does not necessarily mean fully
charged).
Battery is not connected.
The voltage of the battery is abnormal (see chapter 8. Error Code).
