Charging quick-access
Charging quick-access in the
counterweight (variant)
The charging quick-access (variant) is an ad-
ditional charger socket behind a lid in the
counterweight. This charger socket enables
charging of lead-acid batteries and lithium-ion
batteries without having to open the battery
door. Charging is no faster with this charging
access than with conventional charging via the
battery's plug connection.

Depending on the truck equipment, see the
section entitled "Charging the lead-acid bat-
tery" in the "Handling the lead-acid battery"
chapter or the section entitled "Charging the
lithium-ion battery" in the "Handling the lithi-
um-ion battery" chapter.
