Maintenance and care
9.3.1
Maintenance information
•
Plastic surfaces (such as the housing surface) should only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
•
Charge the ACCU before using it. Always use the DEWERT PLUGIN CHARGER PB 4.5 (or the
PLUG-IN CHARGER PB). The integrated charging circuit automatically ensures that the battery
is optimally charged.
•
After the unit has been in storage for a long time, it may be necessary to charge the battery
more than once before the complete capacity is restored.
•
The storage time should not be longer than six months at the recommended storage tempera-
ture. The battery should be charged again after this interval. At higher storage temperatures, the
battery should be recharged more frequently. This will help to prevent a complete discharge of
the battery, which would damage it irreparably.
9.3.2
Care instructions
The lead-acid batteries are maintenance-free. As with any rechargeable battery, the lifespan of the
ACCU is limited. The actual lifespan is very dependent on the battery maintenance. In order to
achieve the maximum lifespan for the battery, observe the battery level indicator and charge the
batteries after any prolonged storage time (6 months storage should not be exceeded).
•
Always keep the ACCU clean and dry. Do not short-circuit the ACCU. Store the ACCU so that
the terminals cannot be shorted to each other or other metallic objects.
•
The ACCU should not be exposed to mechanical vibrations.
•
Only use the recommended charger.
•
Do not use organic solvents (thinning solvents, alcohol, oil, rust inhibitors or surface-active
agents such as chemical cleaners, etc.) on the ACCU.
•
Retain the original documents for any future inquiries.
•
The best battery capacity is achieved when the product is used at normal room temperatures
(from 20°C to 25°C).
•
The ACCU should not be submerged in water. It should be stored in a dry, cool place with a
relative humidity of 50%.
•
Only use the ACCU for its specified purpose.
