•
The effective operational capacity of the battery is approximately 8 hours per
charge.
•
When the battery is approaching time for recharging, the control unit beeps three
(3) times as a warning and at the same time the LED starts to blink on the
control unit.
•
The battery must be used until the LED goes out, after which it can be changed.
If the battery capacity is too low the control unit cannot be activated.
•
The battery capacity and operational performance is reduced in extremely cold
conditions. The battery is automatically charged during operation by cable
control.
•
In order to reduce battery loading and for safety reasons, the control unit is
turned off automatically, after the unit has been idle for more than approximately
five (5) minutes.
