2. Start-up
2.1. Electrical connection
WARNING
Mains voltage present!
Before connecting the REMS rapid charger, check whether the voltage
given on the rating plate corresponds to the mains voltage. Only operate the electrical device
on the mains with a 30 mA fault current protection (FI switch) on building sites, in a humid
environment or in similar types of application.
Rechargeable batteries
NOTICE
Always insert the battery (4) vertically into the REMS cordless LED lamp or the rapid charger.
If inserted at an angle it can cause damage to the contacts and result in a short circuit which
damages the battery.
Total discharging by undervoltage
The Li-Ion batteries may not drop below a minimum voltage because otherwise the battery
could be damaged by “total discharge”. The cells of the REMS Li-Ion battery are delivered
pre-charged to approx. 40 %. Therefore the Li-Ion batteries must be charged before use and
recharged regularly. Failure to observe this regulation of the cell manufacturer can lead to
damage to the Li-Ion battery by total discharging.
Total discharging due to storage
If a relatively low charged Li-Ion battery is stored, self discharging can lead to total discharge
damage of the battery after longer storage. Li-Ion batteries must therefore be charged before
storing and recharged every six months at the latest and charged again before use.
NOTICE
Charge the battery before use. Recharge Li-Ion batteries regularly to avoid their total
discharge. The rechargeable battery will be damaged by total discharge.
1 2
Only use a REMS rapid charger for charging. New Li-Ion batteries and Li-Ion batteries which
have not been used for a long time only reach full capacity after several charges.
Rapid charger Li-ion/NiCd (Art. No. 571560)
The left control lamp lights up and remains green when the mains plug is plugged in. If a battery
is inserted in the rapid charger, the green control lamp flashes to indicate that the battery is
charging. The green light stops flashing and remains on to signal that the battery is fully charged.
If the red control lamp flashes, the battery is defective. If the red control lamp comes on and
remains on, this indicates that the temperature of the rapid charger and / or the battery is outside
the permissible range.
2.2. Mobile application
Hold the REMS cordless LED lamp by the handle (3), point the lamp head (1) at the place to
be illuminated. The lamp head (1) can be continuously swivelled by 145°.
