Charging battery
The mains cable for charging the Power Dock is stored in the cover (34). Connect the
mains cable to the connection socket (34) of the Power Dock as well as to the mains
supply. The charging mode of the battery has two levels, which are displayed by the
flashing charge display (33).
Level 1: The battery is charged in fast charge mode up to approx. 80 % of full charge.
Duration, depending on state of charge, up to 3 hours.
Level 2: The battery is being recharged slowly to 100 % (duration up to approx. 5
hours) and then kept on charge.
Attention: Do not operate the Verso A with the Power Dock during charging.
11.3
Care of the Power Dock
The battery used is sealed and does not require any special care. It does not show any
particular "memory effect" and does not need to be discharged regularly. Ensure,
however, that the battery package never runs down. The bottom bar (10 % of battery
capacity) should always be visible. Therefore, Verso A and Power Dock switch off
automatically when the battery voltage sinks too low. As a leakage current flows even
when the unit is switched off, it is highly recommendable, to fully charge the Power
Dock after use. Additionally, the charge situation must be controlled every two months
and the battery package has to be fully recharged.
If the charge display does not show a fully charged battery package and the value does
not change within the next 1
– 2 hours even though connected to the mains cable, the
battery must be controlled by a local broncolor service station.
12. Lamp bases
In the "fast charging mode" the power pack Verso A2 and Verso A4 has a very high
charging capacity. Therefore each connected lamp base has to be equipped with a flash
tube with high power rating. Thus in this mode the Verso A2 and Verso A4 must be
operated at present only with the following lamp bases:
