Accumulator Charging Instructions

1� Please make sure the mains voltage is the same as the volt-
age listed on the charger's machine plate� Connect the charg-
er (N1) to a power source� A red LED indicator (N2) will light up�
This means the charger is ready to charge� If the red LED indi-
cator does not light up, check the connection to power supply�
If the power supply functioning correctly, bring the charger in
for repair to an authorised service centre!
2� Slide the accumulator (B1) all the way into the charger�
3� The red LED will light up and the green LED (N2) will start flash-
ing to indicate that the accumulator is charging�
4� After approximately 60 minutes, the accumulator should be
fully charged, indicated by the green and red LED staying lit
without flashing�
5� Remove the accumulator from the charger� If you do not wish
to charge another accumulator, disconnect the charger from
the power source�

New batteries:
Battery capacity may be slightly smaller than the listed value dur-
ing the first few initial charge cycles� The reason is that the chem-
ical composition of the batteries has not been activated yet� This
is a temporary issue and will resolve on its own after a few charge
cycles�
Note:
• A blinking green indicator means that the battery is fully
charged or that it is in slow charge mode, which maintains
a low charge level of the battery�
• The initial battery charge may take longer then 60 minutes
(according to battery capacity) depending on the environment
temperature, the power supply and the current charge level�
• If you are not using the charger, please unplug it from the pow-
er source�
Important information about the charging
process:
1� To get the best out of the batteries in terms of longevity and
performance is to charge them at an ambient temperature of
18 °C to 24 °C� DO NOT CHARGE the batteries at temperatures
below 0 °C and above 45 °C� This is very important� You will
prevent serious battery damage�
• Do not charge the batteries in direct sunlight, especially in the
summer! You will prevent extreme overheating, which could
damage them!
2� If a battery that is too cold (below 0 °C) is inserted into the
charger, the charger will not begin charging it right away;
instead, the green and the red indicator light will begin blink-
ing� Once the battery reaches the right temperature naturally
(within the standard range), the fast charge process will begin
automatically�
• If a battery that is too hot (more than 45 °C), is inserted into the
charger, the charger will not begin charging it right away; in-

stead, the green and the red indicator light will begin blinking�
Once the battery reaches the right temperature (within the
standard range), the fast charge process will begin automat-
ically�
3� If it is not possible to charge the batteries properly (the red
indicator is blinking):
• Check that the battery contact surfaces are not dirty� Clean
them with a cotton wad and alcohol as needed�
• If the battery is still not charging properly, send or bring the
charger (including the batteries) to your nearest authorised
service centre�
4� Under certain conditions and if the charger is connected to
power, foreign material may short circuit the charge contacts
inside the charger� Foreign conducting substances, such as
steel fibres, aluminium foils or metal deposits must be re-
moved from the charger continuously� Always unplug the
charger from power prior to cleaning�
5� If you are carrying out several different charge operations one
after the other, the charger may become hot� This is normal
and is not a sign of a technical problem�
6� Prevent liquid from getting inside the charger as it could cause
an electrical injury� Do not place the battery in a hot environ-
ment if you wish to facilitate the battery cool down process�
7� Accumulator batteries can remain plugged into the charger
without a risk of damage to them or the charger itself� The bat-
teries will remain fully charged in the charger� DO NOT LEAVE
charged batteries in the charger if the charger is not plugged
into the power outlet�
8� DO NOT USE ACCUMULATOR BATTERIES if they are damaged
or if liquid leaks out of the cells� If the battery liquid comes
into contact with your skin, immediately flush the area with
water and monitor the skin's reaction� Seek medical attention
if needed� If it comes into contact with your eyes, flush them
with lots of water and immediately seek medical attention�
9� If you are charging a fully discharged battery or if you stop
charging the battery before it is fully charged, you must count
each of these cycles as an entire charging cycle�
Note on Lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries
• These types of batteries do not have a memory effect, in other
words, the batteries can be charged at any state of discharge� If
you take the batteries out of the charger prior to fully charging
them, it will not damage them�
• Each Li-Ion battery is equipped with deep discharge protec-
tion� If the voltage falls (due to overloading or discharge) be-
low the monitored range, the electronic circuit will disconnect
the cells� The machine will then either work intermittently or
not at all� You must reduce machine load or recharge the bat-
tery�
Storing lithium-ion batteries
• Store fully charge batteries in a dry and dust-free environment
at an ambient temperature between 5 °C and 40 °C� If you are
not using the batteries for a longer period of time, we recom-
mend you charge them fully once every three months�
• Keep the battery contacts clean� Do not store the replacement
battery together with metal items as it may cause a short cir-
cuit�
• It is always necessary to charge batteries that were not used for
a long time prior to use�
Transporting lithium-ion batteries
As per legal regulation, lithium-ion batteries fall into the hazard-
ous load category� These batteries must be transported while com-
plying with local, national, as well as international guidelines and
regulations�
• Consumers may transport these batteries on public roads
without a problem�
• Commercial transportation of lithium-ion batteries by trans-
portation companies must comply with the regulation on
hazardous load transportation� Only trained personnel may
carry out the preparation and the actual transport� The entire
process must have expert supervision�
