5.- INSTALLATION
5.1 - THE CB70 (BC70K) BATTERY CHARGER
The battery charger CB70 (or BC70K) has two charging compartments that can simultaneously
charge battery types BT06, BT12 (TM60 series) and BT06K, BT20K (TM70 series).
Connect the charger to the mains using the power
source and cable supplied. On installing the battery
charger, bear in mind that the batteries must be charged
at temperatures over 0ºC and that the power supply must
be left on all night.
Place the batteries in the charger. Please wait about 5
seconds between consecutive insertions of batteries in
their locations.
Each
battery
location
has
a
green
led
indicator
associated.
Green led indications:
1) Green led blinking: it indicates that the battery is excessively unloaded ; when the led finishes
blinking it indicates that the normal loading operation mode has begun.
2) Green led permanently lightning: it indicates normal loading operation mode.
3) Green led extinguished: it indicates that the battery loading process has finished.
The capacity of the batteries decreases with use. Their life span is estimated to be 500
recharging cycles, but this depends largely on the conditions of use, for which the following is
recommended:
Do not recharge the battery until it is completely flat. The transmitter indicates this moment.
Always charge the batteries at temperatures between 0º and 45ºC (the batteries will not
become fully charged at temperatures exceeding 45ºC). Remember that the charger must not
be left in direct sunlight.
Charge the batteries at least once every six months.
Avoid short-circuits between the battery contacts. Do not carry charged batteries in toolboxes
or next to other metal objects (keys, coins, etc.).
Always keep contacts clean.
Never leave batteries in direct sunlight.
Warning: if the battery charger is powered with lower voltage than 10,3v DC, the green led
indicates battery in charging process, even if there is no battery placed in the charger.
Only use IKUSI manufactured batteries
The exhausted batteries must be disposed of or recycled safely according to local standards
The IKUSI - ATEX batteries (BT06K-ATEX and BT20K-ATEX), only can be re-charged with the
BC70K or CB70 battery charger.
