Charging
phases
Loading the battery is done in several stages. Thereby the charge level of the
battery is shown by the 50% and the 100% L
ED
:
•
As soon as the 50% L
ED
lights up, the battery has attained half its
capacity. This state is attained after approx. 4 hours on a completely
discharged battery.
•
As soon as the green 100% L
ED
lights up the battery has attained its
specified capacity. While the 100% L
ED
is lit, charging is continued for
approx. 15 -30 minutes until the maximum available capacity has been
attained.
•
As soon as the 100% L
ED
flashes, the charging process has completely
finished and the battery is switched off.
Pay attention to this additional information on charging the battery:
•
The charging process can be interrupted during any phase and can be
continued later. A partially charged battery can be used to operate the
PDV but will not attain the maximum operating time.
•
Overcharging the battery is safetly prevented through the charge
electronics.
•
It is a good idea to end the charging process after 2 - 3 hours for batteries
which are to be stored - at the latest when the 50% L
ED
lights up.
•
Batteries which have been stored for a long time must be completely
recharged before being used.
•
The battery charger can also be operated using the motor vehicle supply
cable PDV-DC (refer to
FIGURE
A.2). To do so, instead of plugging the plug
-in power supply into the 12 V socket on top of the battery charger, plug in
the motor vehicle supply cable and plug it into a 12 V on-board plug socket
or into a motor vehicle cigarette lighter. The battery is charged in the same
way as with mains operation.
•
To charge a reserve battery, connect it to the battery cable of the battery
charger instead of the first battery.
