3.   When fully charged, the battery charger will still trickle charge the battery to ensure optimum 

range.

4.   If you do not use your powerpack for a long time, it should be charged at least every week to keep 

the battery in a fully usable condition.

5.   The ambient temperature will affect charging time. Charging time will be longer in the winter.
6.   After charging, do not leave the charger socket plugged into the powerpack, as this will cause a 

power drain on the powerpack and temporarily reduce its range.

7.   The batteries carry a six month manufacturer’s warranty. This warranty only covers issues relating 

to manufacturing faults, and not faults relating to failure to recharge the batteries as instructed 

above.

Attention:

 Please follow the rules below to avoid accidents while charging.

1.   Only use the supplied charger, and recharge the battery to its full capacity every time. You may 

damage the battery if you use a charger which is not to the correct specifi cation.

2.   Never disassemble or modify the charger.
3.   Please charge in a well-ventilated space where there is no direct exposure to the sunlight. Do not 

charge in surroundings where it is humid or raining.

4.   Do not charge in temperatures less than -10°C or higher than +50°C as the charger may not work 

well & batteries may become damaged.

Warning

1.   Keep away from fl ammable objects while charging as this may lead to fi re or battery explosion.

2.   Do not smoke while charging as the battery may release hydrogen gas. Always charge your 

battery in a well-ventilated space.

3.   Never connect or disconnect the plug or cord with wet hands whilst charging. Do not connect or 

disconnect the plug or cord when they are wet, it may lead to electric shock

CHARGER

The charger supplied has an LED which changes colour depending on its status:

• 

If the LED is lit ORANGE then the charger is switched on and charging

• 

If the LED is lit GREEN then the charger is switched on and has fi nished the bulk of its charging 

and the batteries can be used. However, we recommend that you leave the charger charging for a 

couple of hours after the green LED has lit. This will maintain and probably increase the capacity 

of your batteries

• 

The LED will also illuminate GREEN if the charger is switched on but not connected to the 

batteries.
