CHARGING THE BATTERIES

NOTE
Charge the batteries when the yellow or red warning led (81b or 81c) turns on, or at the end of every working cycle.
CAUTION!
Keeping the batteries charged make their life last longer.
CAUTION!
When the batteries are discharged, charge them as soon as possible, as that condition makes their life shorter.
Check for battery charge at least once a week.
WARNING!
WET battery charging produces highly explosive hydrogen gas. Charge the batteries in well-ventilated areas and
away from bare fl ames. Do not smoke while charging the batteries.
Keep the tank assembly open while charging the batteries.
WARNING!
Pay careful attention when charging the batteries as there may be battery fl uid leakages. The battery fl uid is
corrosive. If it comes in contact with skin or eyes, rinse thoroughly with water and consult a physician.
