Checking the battery charge status
CAUTION
Deep discharges shorten the service life of the bat-
tery.
Deep discharge begins when the battery charge dis-
play is red (3) (0% of the available battery capacity,
i.e. approx. 20% of the nominal capacity).
– Deep discharge must be avoided (see the section
entitled "Equalising charge to prevent a deep dis-
charge of the battery").
– Stop working with the truck immediately.
– Charge the battery immediately.
– Do not leave batteries in a discharged or partly
discharged state.
– Apply the parking brake.
– Switch on the truck.
– Read the charge status on the display of
the display/operating unit.
– Charge a discharged or partly discharged
battery.
Meaning of the colours in the display
1Green:
The battery is sufficiently charged
2 Yellow:
Charge the battery soon.
3Red:
Stop working. Charge the battery imme-
diately. The battery is at risk of deep dis-
charge.
