Installation

Assemble the Power Supply

Assemble the AC adapter for the Marathon Battery Charger before connecting the AC adapter to the charger.
The AC power supply for the battery charger is shipped with the battery charger. Contact
there is no AC cable.
The battery charger power supply can be used with the Marathon battery charger and with the Marathon desktop dock.
• Plug the 3-prong end of the cable into an AC wall outlet.
• Firmly press the female end of the power cable into the male connector on the AC power adapter. An LED on the power
adapter illuminates when AC power is available.
• AC power is now being applied to the power adapter.

Setup

Prerequisite: The AC Adapter is assembled and receiving AC power.
Place the battery charger on a flat, horizontal, hard surface or fasten securely to the surface using the openings on the bot-
tom of the first and fourth charging pocket. Allow space above and behind the battery charger to allow room to insert or
remove batteries and room to attach the AC adapter cable to the Power port.
Do not insert battery packs until the battery charger has finished powering up:
• Insert the power connector into the power outlet at the back of the battery charger.
• AC power is now being applied to the battery charger and it begins to power up.
• Charge pocket LEDs flash while the battery charger enters and exits the startup check.
• When the charge pocket LEDs are not illuminated, the battery charger is ready for use.

Charging Batteries

New batteries should be charged fully before first use. The life and capacity of a Lithium Ion battery pack can vary
significantly depending on the discharge current and the environment in which it is used.
When a battery is placed in a charging pocket, the battery charger begins charging the battery. There is a slight delay while the
charger evaluates the condition of the battery (ambient temperature, remaining charge, etc.) before charging begins.
As with all batteries, expect to see a reduction in the total number of operations a fully charged battery pack can deliver as it
ages. When the battery reaches end of life (end-of-life occurs after 500 charge/discharge cycles) it must be replaced.
Battery packs do not need to be fully discharged between charge cycles.
