Tips for a long battery service life
CAUTION
– Never charge batteries at temperatures
below 0 °C or above 55 °C.
– Do not charge batteries in environments
with high air humidity or ambient
temperature.
– Do not cover batteries and the charger
during the charging process.
– Pull out the charger mains plug at the end
of the charging process.
Battery and charger heat up during the
charging process. This is perfectly normal!
Lithium-ion batteries do not exhibit the
established “memory effect”. Nevertheless,
a battery should be completely discharged
before charging and the charging process
should always be fully completed.
If batteries are not used for an extended
period of time, store them partially charged
in a cool place.
Charging process
CAUTION
Insert only original batteries in the supplied
charger.
1. Insert the charger mains plug. The display
backlighting lights up green for 2 seconds
and then goes out again. OK is displayed.
2. Insert the battery fully into the charger
until it clicks into place.
– The time remaining in the charging
process (until the battery is fully charged)
and a graphic representation of the state
of charge are shown alternately in the
display.
– The display backlighting lights up orange
when the battery is charged less than
80%.
– When the battery charge reaches 80%
the display lights up green and OK is
indicated.
3. The battery is fully charged when the
display appears.
The green backlighting goes out after
a short time.
4. Remove the battery from the charger.
5. Pull out the mains plug.
NOTE
If the display flashes after the battery is
inserted in the charger, there is a fault in the
battery or in the charger.
Display flashes slowly.
Backlighting orange.
The battery is too hot or too cold.
The charging process starts when the
battery reaches the charging temperature
(0°C...55°C).
