Battery Care With average use, the nickel metal hydride batteries in the
4391A will power the unit for 12 hours before needing
recharged. The 4391A will maintain rated accuracy until all
the decimal points light, indicating that recharging is
required. To recharge, connect AC power to the unit. To fully
charge the batteries requires approximately 16 hours. To
prolong the life of the batteries, it is recommended that you
periodically allow the batteries to discharge until the
decimal points light before recharging. If the batteries lose
the ability to hold a charge they should be replaced. See
Chapter 5 - Maintenance for important precautions
regarding static electricity when opening the housing.
