Should the battery discharge completely and not bere-charged for long periods of time, its built-in recovery technology will minimize damage during re-charge. During thisinterval, the unit is in "Zero Volt Discharge" recovery mode and it may seem that the battery is taking longer than usual tocharge. In fact, it may take several hours for the battery to recover and re-charge depending upon its state of discharge. Figure 11Stages of battery discharge & recovery
