Charger and accu pack
1 Charger AC15 (206.701)
3 Charging plug
2 Status LED of the Charger AC15
Flashing orange: Impulse charge (accu pack
fully discharged)
Orange: Accu pack is being charged
Green: Charging completed
Red: Accu pack damaged
4 Accu pack, e.g. AP424DA rechargeable battery
(206.705)
The charging process starts as soon as the accu pack is connected to the charger. The accu pack is
fully discharged if the status LED on the charger flashes orange. The charging process will take con-
siderably longer in this case. A normal charging process is started, if the status LED is orange. The
charging process is complete when the status LED turns green. Normally, the charging process does
not take longer than 10 hours.
If the status LED turns red, the accu pack is faulty. Possible reasons for this include a broken cable,
short circuit or defective cells. In this case, the used accu pack must be replaced with a new one.
Note: A new accu pack will only achieve full capacity after three complete charging and discharge cycles. Accu
packs are wear parts that lose capacity over time. The capacity is also reduced at high or low ambient tem-
peratures and under intensive use.
