Trickle charging at low discharge level
When the Battery Packs XLP ONE is allowed to discharge too low (voltage lower than 2.7 V), trickle charging is
activated. In this proces, all of the heat setting LEDs flash semi-quickly (every 0.3 seconds) for a maximum of 30
minutes.
If the trickle charging process is successful, it switches back to normal charging process. If there are any persistent
problems after 30 minutes, then all the LEDs start to flash quickly (every 0.1 seconds) and indicate the charging
process will not work. Remove the Battery Pack XLP ONE from the charging cradle.
High level short circuit protection
The Battery Pack XLP ONE switches off in the event of a high level, external short circuit. Once the short circuit is
eliminated, the Battery Pack XLP ONE must be reset by connecting it to the Recharger XLP.
Low level (HICCUP) short circuit protection
In the event of a low level, external short circuit (HICCUP short circuit), all the LEDs flash quickly (every 0.1 seconds)
for five seconds followed by an internal check to identify whether there is still a short circuit. If the short circuit
remains, the LEDs
continue to flash quickly (every 0.1 seconds) followed again by an internal check. This process remains until the
short circuit is remedied. Once the short circuit has been solved, the heat setting being used is reactivated.
Charging temperature
In case of inappropriate temperature of the Battery Pack XLP ONE (see chapter 8.1, Technical specification, page
24), the charging process is aborted and all the LEDs flash quickly (every 0.1 seconds) until the Battery Pack XLP
ONE is removed from the charging cradle or the Recharger XLP is disconnected from the plug socket.
Charging time monitoring
If the charging process takes an unusually long time, this may lead to a safety shutdown. The charging process is
aborted and all the LEDs flash quickly (every 0.1 seconds).
Important information:
Charge the Battery Packs XLP ONE after each use. This extends the life of the batteries and ensures the
product is always ready to be used.
Frequently overcharging (more than 8 hours) the Battery Packs XLP ONE can cause reduced performance
and/or service life.
Battery Packs XLP ONE consist of lithium-ion batteries and can be charged in any condition. This means it
is not necessary to let the battery run down completely before charging it.
Battery Packs XLP ONE must not be charged if the battery temperature is below 10°C. You should therefore
store the XLP ONE battery packs at room temperature (+20°C/+68°F) for a few hours before charging.
Before putting the Battery Packs XLP ONE into storage for a long time (several months), they should only
be half charged (1st and 2nd LEDs light up red and 3rd LED flashes slowly) in order to increase the service
life.
If stored for a long time (several months), the Battery Packs XLP ONE must be recharged before use.
The Battery Packs XLP ONE should be stored switched off (all the LEDs off) and disconnected from the
Recharger XLP and from the Heat Socks XLP ONE with the contact protection covers attached.
