temperatures operation time decreases, while at high temperature the battery may be damaged. 
After charging set the mark switch to red so that you may quickly identify whether the battery is 
charged or uncharged. 
Note: The marker switch does not guarantee the batteries charge status. 
Additional Information 
To use a battery in optimum condition: 
• Use the battery until the low charge light (
) flashes. Using a battery for a short time and then recharging it 
may shorten the operation time. 
• It is recommended to refresh a battery before recharging it when it has not been used for long time; otherwise its 
operation time becomes short. Press the refresh button. 
After refreshing is complete, the REFRESH light turns off and the CHARGE light turns on and charging begins 
automatically. 
 
Refreshing a fully charged battery takes approximately 5 hours (VM-BP84), adding considerable time to battery 
charging. 
With repeated normal charging and use the battery will gradually lose operating time. When operation time 
becomes too short to be useful, replace the battery. 
If the POWER light begins to flash during charging, remove the battery and then reattach it to the AC 
charger/adapter. If the POWER light continues to flash after several attempts to attach it, the battery is unable to 
take a charge and must be replaced. 
Do not attach a hot battery to the AC adapter/charger. Allow it to cool. Attaching a hot battery to the AC 
adapter/charger causes the POWER light to flash. 
THERE ARE NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE THE BATTERY OR AC ADAPTER/CHARGER. 
THROWING THE BATTERY INTO FIRE OR EXPOSING IT TO EXCESSIVE HEAT (ABOVE 149°F [65°C]) MAY 
CAUSE INJURY. 
SHORTING THE BATTERY'S TERMINAL INCREASES RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK. 
ATTENTION: 
The product that you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The battery is 
recyclable. At the end of its useful life, under various state and local laws, it may be 
illegal to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream. Check with your local 
solid waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper disposal.
