How to Charge Batteries for the First Time
- 1). Plug your charger in to an electrical source. The charger and the outlet must be grounded and properly installed under regulation guidelines. If your charger has come with a mobile phone set then the charger should be correctly designed.
- 2). If you are charging a mobile phone battery you will need to place the battery in the phone and turn on the gadget before charging. If using re-chargeable batteries place them in the charger and make sure that the device is working correctly.
- 3). Leave your battery to charge but make sure to read the correct amount of time needed for your specific battery. When charging for the first time the device may indicate that the charging is complete after 10/15 minutes. This is more common in re-chargeable batteries and you will need to remove the battery and re-insert.
- 4). Once you have left your battery the required time, suggested by the manufacturer, remove the battery and use.
