Rechargeable batteries based on Lithium-Ion
technology (Li-Ion) offer clear advantages when
compared to conventional Ni-Cd rechargeable
batteries:
• No memory effect. The rechargeable battery
can be recharged at any time regardless
of the charge level and without any loss of
capacitance.
• Extremely low level of self-discharge so it
is still ready for use following prolonged
storage.
• Low weight and long service life.
The rechargeable battery in the screwdriver is only precharged
to a low level at the time of purchase. Therefore, charge the
rechargeable battery before first use. If the LED charge level
indicator
4
shows that the battery is running low (red light),
recharge the battery.
1. Insert the charging cable into the micro-USB charging
port

on the screwdriver.
2. Insert the mains plug of the micro-USB charger
10
into a
properly installed socket.
The LED level charge indicator will initially illuminate in red.
The LED charge level indicator will turn green-yellow-red
once the rechargeable battery is fully charged.
During the charging process, the mains plug, micro-USB
charger and rechargeable battery will become warm. This
is due to operational reasons and is not a defect.
3. Disconnect the micro-USB charger from the mains after
approx. 3 hours.
4. Disconnect the micro-USB charger from the micro-USB
charging port.
