Installing the battery / charging
1.
Slide the battery towards the back of the filtration unit.
2.
Make sure that the battery is locked in position.
3.
The battery can be charged on the filtration unit or separately.
The battery is partially charged when delivered. It must be charged at 100%
(4 bars) before the first use. It is recommended to charge the batteries at
100% before each use.
The charger must not be used for anything else than it was designed for. Do
not charge the battery in a potentially explosive area. The charger must only
be used indoors.
The charger regulates the charge automatically. Once the battery is fully
charged, it will maintain it at 100% (floating charge). The charge time is 3 to
4 hours.
The battery will discharge itself after long storage periods. Always charge
the battery if the device was stored for more than 15 days.
New batteries or batteries that have been stored for more than three months
need to be fully charged and discharged at least twice in a row to reach the
nominal/rated charge capacity.
