REFRESH MODE
Old rechargeable batteries and those that have not been used for a long time require refreshing.
This process will recover the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries. Press the MODE
key within 8 seconds after inserting the rechargeable batteries; the Refresh mode can be
selected.
Refresh mode will start with discharging the rechargeable battery, then charging it. The
repeated discharging and charging cycles will be launched until no further increase in the
measured capacities is estimated or 20 cycles, whichever comes first.
