False defect note:
When the battery is inserted into the charger and the status LED blinks RED, remove the battery from the charger for 1 minute, then reinsert. If the status LED blinks GREEN, then the battery is properly charging. If the status LED is still blinking RED, remove the battery and unplug the charger for 1 minute. After 1 minute, plug in the charger and reinsert the battery. If the status LED blinks GREEN, then the battery is properly charging. If the status LED is still blinking RED, the battery is defective and needs to be replaced.
