That describes the experience quite accurately ;-)

Yes, there are three phases:
- qualification, where it tries to find out if the battery is any good
- constant current
- constant voltage
There's a nice diagram in the PCF50606 manual, figure 41, on page 62.
If you skip the qualification, you can just use a lab supply as charger.
Very convenient ;-)
