cleaning. The blades continue to move for a
few seconds after the garden product is

Battery Charging (see figure A)
Do not use other battery chargers. The sup-
plied battery charger is designed for the Lith-
ium-Ion battery in your garden product.
Observe the mains voltage! The voltage of
the power supply must correspond with the
data given on the nameplate of the battery
charger. Battery chargers marked with 230 V
can also be operated with 220 V.
The voltage range of the charger is
100–240 V. Ensure that the plug matchs the
outlet.
Note: The battery is supplied partially charged.
To ensure full capacity of the battery, complete-
ly charge the battery in the battery charger be-
fore using your power tool for the first time.
The lithium ion battery can be charged at any
time without reducing its service life. Interrupt-
ing the charging procedure does not damage the
battery.
The "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)" protects
the lithium ion battery against deep discharging.
When the battery is run down or discharged, the
garden product is shut off by means of a protec-
tive circuit: The blade no longer moves.
Do not continue to press the

way only.
The charging procedure starts as soon as the
charger plug 6 of the battery charger is inserted
into the socket 15.
