6. The Battery
6.5 Fuse
Lithium-Ion batteries must only be recharged and stored on fireproofed and non-
flammable surfaces! The battery must not be recharged unsupervised.
The ambient operating temperature while charging should be between 50° F and
105° F.
To avoid overcurrent, the battery-pack is equipped with a 7.5 A Miniblade-fuse. This
fuse has to be replaced if it blows.
6.4 Charging the Battery-pack
For charging the battery please use the supplied automatic charger. A discharged
battery can be charged within 2 hours.
– Connect the charger to a power socket (100-240 V~/50Hz–60Hz).
– Connect the output line of the charger to the battery-pack.
The Charge-LED lights as long as the battery is charging.
When the battery is fully charged, the Charge-LED will extinguish or change its colour,
depending on what type of charger is delivered.
– Disconnect the charger from the battery.
Disconnect the battery-pack from the
Tiny FX
after each use and recharge it, at the
latest when the yellow control-LED in the machines lid [5] flashes fast.
Avoid complete discharge (control-LED does not ilght at all) because this will cause
irreversible damage to the battery-pack.
6.3 Operating and Storing
Lithium-Ion batteries are modern energy suppliers with huge capacity, small dimensi-
ons and light weight. Due to its high energy seal and the materials used these batteries
are known as not completely harmless. Therefore please read the safety instructions
carefully (see point 6.6)!
Optimal storage of the fully charged battery at 60° F and an air humidity of 45 -
85%.
If the battery will not be used for a long time it must be recharged regularly (ap-
prox. every six months).
