Battery and Battery Charger
3.2.1 FuB 05 AA Transmitter Battery
The age and ambient temperature are decisive for
the length of the battery applications. Older batteries
lose capacity over time. Temperatures under zero
also have a negative effect on battery charge.
The length of serviceable battery life depends on
how the battery is treated. When handled properly
the FuB 05 AA battery can exceed 500 charging
cycles. Do not totally discharge or short-circuit
contacts as this can permanently destroy the battery.
We recommend recharging the battery only when it is empty, i.e. when the dual color
LED on the transmitter flashes red or an acoustic signal sounds.
Always store rechargeable batteries at room temperature (20 °C or 68 °F).
3.2.2 FLG 105 Battery Charger
Recharging batteries
1. Connect battery charger to mains (refer to nameplate on battery
charger for details).
2. Insert battery with the nameplate facing up into the battery
compartment (pos.
➁
).
Charging indicator (red LED ; pos.
➀
)
LED lit : .............................. battery charging.
LED off or flashing : ............ battery full, i.e. operable.
LED flashes when
inserting battery : ................ battery totally discharged
or defective.
Notes :
– A discharged FuB 05 AA battery recharges in approx. 4
hours. Electronics in the battery charger ensure that
charging does not exceed 5 hours.
– The quick charging of NiCd batteries should only take place
at temperatures b10 °C and +40 °C (50 °F and
104 °F).
– Protect battery contacts against short circuits. Never store
batteries in a tool box or trouser pockets. A bunch of keys is
enough to short the battery. Always use the protective cap
included.
– Use the charger at room temperature (20 °C or 68 °F) and
protect it from extreme heat (direct sun).
