ATTENTION
Risk of damage due to full discharge!
Charge the batteries before commis-
sioning the appliance.
NOTICE
The appliance is equipped with a total
discharge protection, i.e. if the still ad-
missible minimum of the capacity is
reached, the appliance can only be
driven. The display shows the mes-
sage "Battery low - cleaning not possi-
ble" and "Battery empty - please
charge".
 Drive the appliance directly to the
charging station; avoid any steep
gradients in the process.
NOTICE
While using other batteries (for e.g.
batteries from other manufacturers)
the total discharge protection level
must be reset by the Kärcher after-
sales service according to the respec-
tive battery.
ƽ DANGER
Risk of electric shock. Observe supply
network and fuse protection - see
"Charger". Only use the charger in dry
rooms with sufficient ventilation!
NOTICE
Average charging time is approx. 10 -
12 hours.
The recommended chargers (match-
ing the batteries used) are regulated
electronically and will automatically
switch off the charging process.
ƽ DANGER
Danger of explosion. The room, where
the machine is kept to charge the bat-
tery, must feature a minimum volume
and an air exchange with a minimum
flow rate, depending on the type of bat-
tery (see "Recommended Batteries").
Danger of explosion. The charging of
wet batteries is only permitted if the
waste water reservoir is tilted up.
 Swivel the wastewater tank up-
wards.
 Separate the battery plug and con-
nect the charger cable.

the charging process comes to an
end; follow the correct acid level.
There are corresponding indicators
on the battery. At the end of the
charging process, all cells must
gas.
ƽ DANGER
Danger of chemical burns. Filling water
in while the battery is discharged can
lead to acid leaks!
Wear goggles when handling battery
acid and adhere to instructions to pre-
vent injuries and damage to clothing.
Flush any acid drops on the skin or
clothes immediately with plenty of wa-
ter.
ATTENTION
Use only distilled or desalinated water
