6.1 Charging the battery (Fig. 2-3)
Important! At below 10° C, charging is reduced in keeping with the
charger‘s intelligent safety concept. This may mean that the battery
pack will not be fully charged. At below 0° C and above 40° C there is no
charging performed.
The battery is protected from exhaustive discharge. An integrated
protective circuit automatically switches off the equipment when the
battery is flat. In this case the bit chuck will cease to turn. Warning! Do
not press the ON/OFF switch any more if the protective circuit has
actuated. This may damage the battery.
1. Remove the battery pack (5) from the handle, pressing the pushlock
buttons (8) downwards to do so.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the
rating plate of the battery charger. Plug the mains plug of the charger
(6) into the mains socket outlet.
3. Connect the charging cable (a) to the charging adapter (12).
4. The green LED on the charger will flash. Plug the battery (5) into
the charging adapter (12). Now the red LED will come on to indicate
that the battery pack is being charged. When the charging process
is finished, the green LED will be permanently lit. The time it takes
to fully recharge an empty battery is approximately 1 hour. The
temperature of the battery may rise slightly during the charging
operation. This is normal. If the red and green LED flashes after the
battery has been inserted, the battery is defective. In this case, pull
out the mains plug of the charger immediately and remove the
defective battery. Do not use the defective battery again. If the red
and green LED on the charger lights up while the battery pack is
inserted, the charging temperature is either too high or too low.
In this case, pull out the mains plug of the charger and charge the
battery in an environment in which the temperature is either warmer
or colder.
There is no risk in leaving the battery in the charger as the charging is
ended automatically. However, you should disconnect the charger from the
battery and from the power supply so as not to waste electricity.
