CHARGING THE BATTERY
The Akku-Compact Flex
is characterized by its low weight and excellent performance. Moreover, it has no memory effect. So that you
can continue your work as soon as possible, the handheld punch driver is delivered together with a quick
charging unit.
The battery is delivered to you partially charged. Before use please charge it completely:
1. Connect the charger at 230V / 50Hz to the electrical outlet.
2. Slide the battery into the charger. The charging process begins automatically and takes
approximately 30 minutes depending on battery capacity and state of charge.
3. After charging is complete, the LED on the charger will constantly glow green.
Disconnect the charger from the mains or pull the plug.
You can check the state of charge of the battery by pressing the small key next to the four LED. All of the LED
will light up when the battery is charged completely. If less than four LED light up, the battery capacity is
accordingly lower.
Instructions for battery storage:
If you do not use the battery for a long period of time, please check its state of charge regularly.
During longer storage of the battery we recommend an ideal state of charge of 50% to 80%.
Please recharge the battery when the capacity is lower.
