Quad Charge Circuitry
This charger features four individual charging circuits
allowing you to charge four batteries simultaneously,
regardless of battery chemistry or cell count.
High Power Charging Circuit
This charger features a powerful 100Watts charging
circuit per channel (X4). The charger can safely
charge or discharge up to 15 cells of NiMH or NiCd
batteries and up to 6S LiPo batteries per channel.
Lithium Cell Voltage Monitoring
This charger can monitor and balance individual cells
within a LiPo battery in either charge or discharge
mode.
Multiple Chemistry Charging
This charger will charge Li-ion, LiPo, LiHV, LiFe,
NiMH, NiCd and Pb battery types.

Never leave the charger unsupervised when it is connected to its power supply. If any
malfunction is observed, immediately terminate the process and refer to the operation manual.
Keep the charger away from dust, water, heat, direct sunlight and vibration.
The circuit of this unit can be powered by AC 100-240V or DC 11-18 volt power source.
This unit and the battery to be charged or discharged should only be set upon a heat resistant,
non-flammable and non-conductive surface. Never charge on a car seat, carpet or similar
surface. Keep all flammable or volatile materials well away from the operating area.
Be sure to understand the specifications of the battery to be charged or discharged. If the
program is set up incorrectly, the battery can be severely damaged. Lithium batteries, when
improperly charged or discharged, can cause permanent damage or fire.
To avoid short-circuits between the charge leads, always connect the charge cable to the unit
first, and only then to the battery to be charged or discharged. Reverse the sequence when
disconnecting.
Do not attempt to disassemble battery packs.

The typical purpose of discharge is to determine the residual capacity of the battery, or
to lower the voltage of the battery to a defined level. Much like the process of charging,
when you discharge batteries you must not leave the battery unattended. To avoid the
battery becoming over discharged, set the final discharge voltage correctly. Lithium
batteries should not be over discharged to lower than the minimum voltage, as this
leads to a rapid loss of capacity or a total failure. Generally, you do not need to
discharge a Lithium battery.
Some rechargeable batteries are said to have a memory effect. If they are partly used
and recharged before the whole charge is drawn out, they 'remember' this and the next
time they are used, they will only use the “remembered” part of their capacity. NiCd and
NiMH batteries are said to suffer from memory effect and prefer complete cycles. Fully
charge these batteries and then use until they’re empty. Do not recharge before storage;
allow them to self discharge during storage. NiMH batteries have less memory effect
than NiCd.
Lithium batteries should not be fully discharged. Read the manufacturer’s recommend-
ed minimum voltage and never allow the pack to drop below that voltage. Instead,
charge the battery more often or use a larger capacity pack.
A brand-new NiCd battery pack will not reach peak performance until the pack has been
cycled approximately 10 times. The cyclic process of charge and discharge will optimize
the capacity of the battery pack.

This charger features four full-featured chargers within a single housing. To swap between
channels 1 through 4, press the "CHANNEL" button on the front of the charger. The four red
LED lights on the front face of the charger will indicate which charger is currently selected.
To change the default values, press the Start/
Enter key once. The value to be adjusted will blink
indicating it can be edited. Use the Inc/Dec keys to
adjust the value to the desired setting, then press
the Start/Enter key once to save your changes for
that value.
The screen will show the nominal voltage of the
four types of Lithium batteries; LiFe (3.3V), Li-ion
(3.6V), LiPo (3.7V) and LiHV(3.8). It is very
important to make sure you choose the correct
type of battery during set up. Refer to the battery's
owner’s manual for reference if needed. Failure to
choose the correct battery type can cause damage
to the battery, charger, and will void all warranties.
