• H2 (Med): മീഡിയം കട്ട്-ഓഫ് വോളിയംtage, a balanced setting for most uses.
• H3 (High): ഏറ്റവും ഉയർന്ന കട്ട്-ഓഫ് വോളിയംtage, provides maximum battery protection, cutting off power sooner.

To change the setting, press the 'SET' button on the control panel until the battery icon flashes, then use the 'Up' or 'Down' arrows to select H1, H2, or H3. The unit will automatically save the setting after a few seconds.
