This process can take up to 12 hours or more to complete, depending on the charging status and
battery capacity. Interruption of either the discharge phase or the full charge phase delays calibration
until the next charging opportunity.

NOTE: IMPRES batteries with the Self-Calibration and Recondition icon on the battery label, do
not require periodic calibration and recondition, when docked into this IMPRES charger.
1.5.1
IMPRES 2 End of Service Life LED Indication
As batteries are used, normal wear reduces available capacity. At the successful completion of
calibration and reconditioning, IMPRES 2 chargers compare IMPRES 2 battery capacity to the battery
Rated Capacity.
When the capacity is at a very low value, the IMPRES 2 battery may be nearing its End of Service.
1.5.2
Initiating Calibration and Recondition Manually
Although calibration or recondition is automatic, you may be required to manually initiate calibration or
recondition in certain situations.
Procedure:
1 Insert the battery into the charger pocket.
2 Remove the battery from the charger pocket.
3 Reinsert the battery into the charger pocket within 5 seconds.
Calibration and recondition starts immediately, beginning with battery discharge indicated by
a steady amber LED status. Calibration and recondition are complete only after a full charge
indicated by a steady green LED status. See
NOTE: This process can take up to 12 hours or more to complete, depending on the
charging status and battery capacity. Interruption of either the discharge phase or the full
charge phase delays calibration until the next charging opportunity.
1.5.3
Terminating Calibration and Recondition Manually
You can manually terminate calibration and recondition during the process.
Procedure:
1 Remove the battery from the charger pocket.
