Meaning of the LEDs

After inserting the charger in the socket, all the
LEDs light up for approx. 1 s (SCA 8 only).
After this, the charge status display [1-4] on the
charger initially changes to the yellow LED ("self-
check") and then indicates the operating condition
of the charger:

General fault indicator, e.g. not in full con-
tact, short circuit, faulty battery pack, etc.

ted limit values. As soon as the permitted
temperature is reached, the charger auto-
matically switches to charging.

15 min
In addition, the SCA 8 charger indicates the
5 min
maximum remaining charge time on the
LEDs [1-3]:
Insert the battery pack

The charge status display flashes several times.
Maximum remaining charge time is displayed by
the corresponding LED flashing.
Continuous or several consecutive charging cycles
can cause the charger to heat up. However, this
does not do any harm and does not indicate a tech-
nical fault.
When kept in the charger, battery packs remain ful-
ly charged.
Place battery pack during charging in a well venti-
lated area.
AIRSTREAM (SCA 8 only)
The SCA 8 charger is fitted with a fan and actively
supports cooling of the BP 18 Li-AS battery packs.
