Battery and charging

31

Before first use, fully charge the battery until
all LEDs light up when you activate the LED
indicator or until the charger signals the end
of the charging process.

Deep-sleep mode activation

If the battery remains out of use for eight
days, it automatically goes into deep-sleep
mode. The battery also enters deep-sleep
mode when its voltage falls below the
undervoltage threshold. In addition, it is
possible to activate deep-sleep mode
manually. This is done by pressing and holding
the LED pushbutton for eight seconds.
Release the pushbutton as soon as the second
LED lights up.

With the battery in this state, the only way to
wake the battery is to press the control
button (see Picture 1).

Battery charge state indicator

You can check the state of charge of the
battery directly on its display by briefly
pressing the white pushbutton on the right.

The current charge state is indicated by the
number of LEDs that light up.

Safety information

Attention! The charger must not

be used for any purpose other than
charging the battery supplied. No other
use is permitted. Tampering of any kind
with the charger or battery housing is
prohibited.

The charger is intended for indoor use only.
Only charge the battery in a dry environment
in which there is no risk of fire. Always avoid
the ingress of water and moisture into the
charger. If water ingress nevertheless does
occur, immediately disconnect the charger
from the mains and have it inspected by a
specialist dealer.

Attention! The mains voltage

must be the same as the voltage stated on
the charger's type plate. The supply voltage

of the charger is stated on the type plate
on the back of the device.

In the event of a sudden change in
temperature from cold to hot, condensation
could form on the charger. In this situation,
wait until the charger has warmed up to room
temperature before you connect it to the
mains. The best way to avoid this situation is
to store the charger in the same place as it is
used.

Charge the battery only at an ambient
temperature of between 0 °C and 45 °C (35
°F – 104 °F). Deep discharge
