Avaya Quick Charger PTQ360 User manual

The Avaya Quick Charger User
Guide
The PTQ360 Quick Charger will recharge a sin-
gle NiCd (Nickel Cadmium) or NiMH (Nickel
Metal Hydride) battery in 60-90 minutes. Note
these precautions:
• To ensure proper charging and prevent dam-
age, the Battery Pack should be at room tem-
perature (between 50° and 85° F, 10° and
30° C) when charging.
• Do not place the charger where it is subject
to extreme temperature variations, such as
sunny windows or heating/cooling vents.
•Flashing yellow—the Quick Charger is test-
ing and conditioning the Battery Pack. This
test/condition mode is automatically started
every 11th cycle of the charger. Testing the
NiCd Standard Battery Pack takes approxi-
mately four hours; testing the NiMH High
Capacity Battery Pack takes approximately
8-10 hours.
To manually start the test, press the MODE but-
ton. To stop the test, press the MODE button.
However, it is highly recommended that the test
be allowed to complete.
Battery Pack Bins
If a Wireless Telephone is to be used during the
recharging cycle, fully charged Battery Packs must
always be available. Therefore, it is recommended
that a bin is available to collect discharged Battery
Packs and a second bin for charged Battery Packs.
Users can quickly replace their discharged Battery
IMPORTANT
•Replacement Battery Packs are available from your
supplier or servicing agent.
•Never use non-[OEM] charging units as they
could damage the Battery Pack.
•Only use the original [OEM] plug-in power adapter.
•Do not dip the Battery Pack in water or throw into fire.
•It is normal for the Battery Pack to become warm
when charging.
•Recycle or dispose of Battery Packs according to local
requirements.
•Do not immerse the Charger in water or other liquid.
Pack with a charged one. An assigned person can
recharge the Battery Packs and move them to the
charged bin as they are recharged. It is also rec-
ommended that the bins be non-metallic and clear-
ly labeled to identify whether they are intended for
charged or discharged Battery Packs.

Charging the Battery Pack
1. Connect the transformer to the charger and
plug the transformer into the wall outlet. A
solid red LED on any empty charger indi-
cates that the charger is idle and ready for
use. If the LED does not light, check the wall
transformer and plug connection to the charg-
er. If the charger appears to be plugged in
correctly, make sure the wall outlet has
power.
2. To remove the Battery Pack from the
Wireless Telephone, slide the Battery Pack
down and off while pressing the Battery Pack
release button on the back of the Wireless
Telephone.
3. Place the Battery Pack on the charger by
aligning the top of the Battery Pack with the
tracks on the charger then gently sliding the
Battery Pack upward onto the charger.
LED Status Indicators
While the Battery Pack is in the charger, the LED
on the charger will indicate the status of the
charging process and/or the Battery Pack.
•Solid Green—the Battery Pack is charging.
The Quick Charger takes 60-90 minutes to
fully charge a Battery Pack. If the NiMH
Battery Pack is hot or cold when placed in
the charger, it may take longer to charge.
•Flashing green—the Battery Pack is fully
charged and ready for use. You may leave a
fully charged Battery Pack in the Quick
Charger. However, if you remove a fully
charged Battery Pack then replace it in the
charger, the charger LED will light solid
green until the charger determines that this
Battery Pack is fully charged. It may take a
few minutes to give the flashing green indi-
cation.
•Solid red or flashing red—the Battery Pack
in the charger is no longer capable of retain-
ing a charge and is not usable. Used Battery
Packs should be disposed of properly.
•Flashing red/green—there is a problem with
either the Battery Pack or charger. It may
mean the Battery Pack being charged is too
hot or too cold. Allow the Battery Pack to
stabilize at room temperature and try again.
If several different Battery Packs cause the
charger to show a flashing red or red/green
LED, the charger may not be working prop-
erly. To verify this, substitute another charger
and repeat the operation that caused the fail-
ure. If the same Battery Pack lights a green
LED when inserted in a different charger, the
first charger is faulty. If the problem contin-
ues, call your Service Representative.
