13. Maintenance Works and
Checks
The radio control is virtually maintenance-free. To
insure uninterrupted operation, observe the follow-
ing instructions:
IMPORTANT!
1. The entire system is resistant to splashed water, but
it is not waterproof.
2. Keep all components clean and dry and use the
cover caps to close off immediately any connection
plugs which are not being used.
Changing the transmitter battery
1. Switch off the transmitter and press the
EMERGENCY OFF button.
2. Undo the locking screws by rotating through 90
degrees.
3. Remove battery.
4. Insert charged battery with its contacts first into the
battery compartment. The position of the positive
and negative poles is not important due to the
automatic polarity switch-over circuit.
5. Replace cover. Turn the locking screws 90 degrees
and clip in by applying a slight pressure. DO NOT
screw in.
NOTE: Check that the cover is correctly mounted.
If mounted upside down, there is a visible gap
through which humidity can penetrate into the bat-
tery compartment.
Charging the transmitter battery
The battery in the charger is exchanged in the
same way as described above, but:
CAUTION! The charger is not equipped with an
automatic polarity switch-over circuit. If the LED
lights up RED, IMMEDIATELY remove the bat-
tery and change over the contact position (turn the
battery around). The LED will indicate GREEN if
the polarity is correct.
NOTE! The time it takes to charge a battery com-
pletely is approximately 14 hours or less, if the
battery is exchanged in good time.
NOTE! DO NOT USE any other chargers: RISK
OF EXPLOSION.
NOTE! Only use ORIGINAL SCHWING NiCd
rechargeable batteries: There is a RISK OF DAM-
AGE to the equipment if incorrect rechargeable
batteries are used.
NOTE! Do not open the batteries (fumes hazard-
ous to health).
NOTE! Do not throw away batteries that are dead
or defective. Instead, dispose of them at an
approved collection point, which is equipped to
deal with special wastes.
