Information to ensure a long battery
service life
Risk of damage!
–
Never charge batteries at temperatures
below 5 °C or above 40 °C.
–
Do not charge batteries in an environ-
ment with high air humidity or at a high
ambient temperature.
–
Do not cover batteries and/or the battery
charger during the charging process.
–
At the end of the charging process pull
out the battery charger mains plug.
The battery and battery charger heat up
during the charging process. This is
normal!
Lithium ion batteries do not exhibit the well
known “memory effect”. Nevertheless,
before a battery is recharged, it should be
fully discharged and the charging process
always run to the end.
If the batteries are not used for a prolonged
period, store batteries partially charged
and in a cool location.

Damage to property!
Use only original batteries in the supplied
battery charger.
Insert the mains plug of the battery
charger.
The green operating status LED

Insert battery fully into the battery
charger.
The red charging status LED lights up.
The red LED goes out after approx.
1 hour when the battery is fully charged.
Take the battery out of the battery
charger.
Pull out the mains plug.
Note
If both LEDs flash alternately when the
battery has been inserted, the battery may
be too cold or too hot. When the battery has
reached a temperature of 5 °C–40 °C,
the red LED should be lit constantly and the
charging process should start. If the LEDs
are still flashing after one hour, the battery
is defective. Pull out the mains plug.
