Installation

3.1

Charging the battery

A full charge takes 3.5 hours. Before the first use, TPP Pipettor Turbo-Fix should be
charged until the battery charge indicator (4) turns green, showing that the battery is full. 

When the battery charge indicator (4) starts flashing red, TPP Pipettor Turbo-Fix can be
used for around 100 pipetting cycles before shutting down. It should thus be recharged
immediately.

TPP Pipettor Turbo-Fix has an integrated protection: it will not overcharge even if it is
connected to power for indefinite time. To avoid unnecessary power consumption, it is
recommended to unplug the power supply when the charge indicator is green.
TPP Pipettor Turbo-Fix can be used while it is being charged.

The battery charge indicator provides various information:

the holder. Hold it with the sign <up> facing upwards and press it to the desired place.
Make sure that the surface onto which the wall mount is mounted is smooth, clean and
grease-free. Wait 24 hours before using the wall mount for the first time. Alternatively the
wall mount can be fixed with the included screws.
