Use as Intended
The device is only designed for charging Kress batter-
ies with voltages between 7.2 V and 13.2 V.
Both NiCd batteries and NiMH batteries can be
charged.
The application possibilities for the battery charger
can be found in the tabulated overview at the end of
these operating instructions.
Putting into Operation
Remove the battery from the device as described in
the pertaining operating instructions. Re-assemble in
the reverse sequence. Insert the battery into the bat-
tery charger as far as it will go.
Charging Procedure
The charging process begins as soon as the mains
plug is inserted into the power supply socket and the
battery is placed into battery charger slot.
The ”intelligent” battery charger recognises the
charged condition of the battery and switches a fully
charged battery immediately to trickle charging. By
means of this charging process, the battery is pro-
tected and always fully charged.
Rapid charging is only possible when the temperature
of the battery is b5 °C and +45 °C.
The charging unit it suitable for continuous operation.
Display and Key
Constant yellow light:
The device is ready for use;
there is no battery in the charging slot.
Blinking green indicator light:
The battery has con-
tact; charging is in progress (approx. 40 minutes for
an NiCd battery/approx. 60 minutes for an NiMH bat-
tery).
Constant green indicator light:
The battery is
charged; the charger has switched to maintaining
charge.
Constant red light:
The battery is too hot or too cold.
The charging process begins automatically as soon
as the battery is in the permissible temperature range.
Blinking red ligh:
The battery is defective or there is
a short between the charging contacts.
– Remove the battery from the battery charger.
– Pull out the mains plug!
– Check the charging slot for foreign bodies.
Use as Intended
The device is only designed for charging Kress NiCd
batteries with voltages between 7.2 V and 14.4 V.
The application possibilities for the battery charger
can be found in the tabulated overview at the end of
these operating instructions.
Putting into Operation
Remove the battery from the device as described in
the pertaining operating instructions. Re-assemble in
the reverse sequence. Insert the battery into the bat-
tery charger as far as it will go.
Charging Procedure
The quick, computerised battery charger has an
extensive function for monitoring the battery and
charging parameters and charges the battery with the
optimum quick-charging current in each case,
depending upon the temperature. This enables the
shortest charging times and a long battery service life.
After completion of the quick charging process, the
charging unit switches automatically to trickle charg-
ing. This compensates for the natural self-discharging
of the battery.
Display and Key
Constant yellow light:
The charging unit is correctly
connected to the power mains and is ready for opera-
tion. No battery is inserted in the charging cavity or it
is not making contact.
Blinking green indicator light:
The battery is making
contact and quick charging is in progress.
Constant green indicator light:
The quick charging
process has ended and the charging unit has swit-
ched to trickle charging. The battery is completely
charged and can be removed.
Constant red light:
The battery temperature is out-
side the allowable range. The charging process
begins as soon as the battery temperature is again
within the prescribed temperature range.
Blinking red ligh:
The battery is defective or there is
a short between the charging contacts.
– Remove the battery from the battery charger.
– Pull out the mains plug!
– Check the charging slot for foreign bodies.
Wall Mounting of the Charging Unit
The charging unit can be attached to the wall with the
aid of the wall holder provided and standard screws.
The charging unit can be removed again at any time
by lifting and unhooking and used as a table unit, for
example.
