2.11.1 Low Discharge Signal
Sender
Battery Charging Status Indicator
Upon turning ON by key switch, bat-
tery charging status is shown by dis-
play of green bars (Fig. 5/1). As the
battery discharges during operation,
the lighting green bars extinguish one
after another showing thus always the
current charge status of battery char-
ge.
Flashing of the last two green bars
indicates that operation will be stop-
ped soon. In order to preclude low
discharge of batteries, the sweeping
units are switched off and riding
speed reduced to 50% if battery is
discharged. The red LED (Fig. 5/4)
than flashes.

nal sender set to other bat-
tery types by qualified per-
