LED Functions
When the CHARGE button is pressed, the Field Charger’s two LED charge indicators will provide
information about the status of the Field Charger and the charging process:
• Green LED glowing steadily: charging normally.
• Green LED flashing: charging is complete.
• Red LED glowing steadily: Field Charger must be recharged (not enough power to recharge
vehicle).
• Red LED flashing: Vehicle’s NiMH battery temperature is too high (allow vehicle to cool down
before attempting to recharge).
• Red AND green LEDs flashing: The charger is not properly connected to the vehicle. First make
sure that the vehicle switch is in the OFF position. If the red and green indicators still flash, then
the vehicle’s NiMH battery temperature is too low for charging (allow vehicle to warm up to
normal operating temperature).
NOTE: the NiMH battery inside your vehicle must be conditioned in order to deliver
maximum flight time. Your first few flights may be shorter, but flight time will increase with
use.
[!] Do not attempt to recharge the vehicle until it’s fully discharged. Additional charging will not
increase running time, and may permanently damage the vehicle’s NiMH battery.
