The rechargeable Li-ion batteries are specially designed for
1)
de-
use with the powered air purifying respirator. A long-life re-
chargeable battery is also available in addition to the standard
rechargeable battery.
The battery status indicator shows the battery capacity while
you charge the unit with the standard charger or when you
push the button. The segments of the battery status indicator
are flashing while you charge the unit.
The battery status indicator corresponds to that on the control
panel of the fan unit (see section 2.2.1 on page 16).
The rechargeable batteries reach their full capacity after 5
charge and discharge cycles. The standard charge takes ap-
prox. 3 hours.
In cases where the battery has been completely drained
charging may take up to 4 hours longer. During this time the
battery status indicator is not supported.
To prevent damage to or explosion of the rechargeable battery,
charging is limited to a temperature range of 0 to 50 °C. If this
temperature range is exceeded or falls below, charging will
stop automatically and continue once the temperature range is
reached again.
