5.2.1. Charging the Battery
The battery packs supplied are delivered with a low level of charging ex-
works to avoid possible problems. They must be charged before using, until
the green LED on the front side of the charger lights continuously.
When the charger is connected to the mains, the red LED lights up. On
inserting the battery, the green LED flashes to show that the battery is now
being charged. When the green LED lights continuously, the charging
process has been completed.
A red flashing LED indicates that the battery is defective. The cause of this
could be that the battery is hot, cold or damaged. Separate the respective
battery from the charger and wait 30 minutes before trying to charge the
battery again.
Note:
If the charger does not charge the battery under normal conditions,
please contact the Bona Service number provided.
Note:
When being charged the first time, batteries do not charge up
completely. Several cycles are required to achieve complete charging.
The battery must only be charged using the charger provided.
Make sure the power supply is appropriate for the charger provided. Make
sure the battery is correctly aligned and has been correctly inserted in the
