Forming Mode

The LE-D 10 charging units are equipped with a forming mode for the rechargeable batteries inside the microphone units. The batteries are
formed and charged at the factory. If you have not used the microphone units for several months and repeated charging and discharging
procedures did not help to create a satisfying operating time of the rechargeable batteries, you should form the batteries before you set up
the microphone units. Please proceed as described in the following:
• First of all remove all microphone units from the charging compartments.
• After switching on the charger press the buttons in the bottom of the two furthest charging compartments (next to the contact pins in the
round gap).
• Pressing one of these buttons will activate the forming mode for 5 charging compartments. The LEDs will flash rapidly.
• Then put the microphone units into the charging compartments. The LEDs will flash short and long.
• When the green LEDs are permanently on, then the battery is full.
CAUTION:
• Only form empty batteries, but never full batteries! Do not switch off the charging unit during the forming mode, as this will
interrupt the forming mode.
• The forming mode will be terminated automatically when the microphone units are fully charged or when the charger is switched
off.
• If the forming mode does not help to achieve a satisfying operating time of the rechargeable battery of the microphone unit, the
rechargeable battery is exhausted and must be replaced. The lifetime of the rechargeable battery depends on maintaining the
mentioned recommendations. Therefore, the warranty does not include rechargeable batteries.
