Hints:
▪
The electronics protects the battery from over-charging, over-
heating and total discharge. There is no loss of charge. The battery
is characterised by low self-discharge. A fully charged battery is
always ready for use, even if you do not use it for months.
▪
A battery that is new or has not been used for a longer period does
not develop its full capacity until after approx. 5 charging/
discharging cycles. When properly using the battery it can be
charged up to 1000 times.
▪
If you notice during operation that the tines movement slows down
or stops abruptly, the battery is discharged. Always avoid
discharging the battery completely.
▪
Please order a second battery under the article no. 81 50 51 (1300
mAh) or 93 92 77 (1500 mAh), so will be able to operate the hand-
tiller continuously.
