Charging Procedure

The charging procedure starts as soon as the mains plug of
the charger is plugged into a socket outlet and the battery is
inserted onto the charger .
Due to the intelligent charging method, the charging condi-
tion of the battery is automatically detected and the battery
is charged with the optimum charging current, depending on
battery temperature and voltage.
This gives longer life to the battery and always leaves it fully
charged when kept in the charger for storage.
Meaning of the Indication Elements
(AL 1810 CV)
Flashing battery charge indicator
The charging process is indicated by the flash-
ing of the battery charge indicator .
Solid light on battery charge indicator
A solid light on the battery charge indicator
signals that the battery is fully charged or that
the temperature of the battery is not within the
permitted charging temperature range, and
can therefore not be charged. The battery is charged as soon
as the allowable charging temperature range is reached.
When the battery is not inserted, a solid light on the battery
charge indicator signals that the mains plug is inserted in the
plug socket and that the charger is ready for operation.
Meaning of the Indication Elements
(AL 1830 CV)
(Fast) Flashing of the Green Battery Charge Indicator
The rapid-charging procedure is indicated by
fast flashing of the green battery charge in-
dicator .
Note: The rapid-charging procedure is only possible when
the battery temperature is within the allowable charging
temperature range, see section "Technical Data".
(Slow) Flashing of the Green Battery Charge Indicator
When the charging condition of the battery is
80%, the green battery charge indicator
flashes slowly.
The battery can be removed for immediate use.
Continuous Lighting of the Green Battery Charge
Indicator
Continuous lighting of the green battery
Full
charge indicator indicates that the battery is
fully charged.
When the battery is not inserted, continuous lighting of the
battery charge indicator indicates that the mains plug is in-
serted in the socket outlet and that the battery charger is
ready for operation.

Continuous Lighting of the Red Battery Charge Indicator
Continuous lighting of the red battery charge
indicator indicates that the temperature of the
battery is not within the allowable charging temperature
range, see section "Technical Data". As soon as the allowable
charging temperature range is reached, the battery charger
automatically switches to rapid charging.
Flashing Red Battery Charge Indicator
A flashing red battery charge indicator indic-
ates a different malfunction of the charging
procedure, see section "Troubleshooting – Causes and Cor-
rective Measures".
Battery charge-control indicator
The battery is equipped with a charge-control indicator,
which indicates its charge condition. The charge-control in-
dicator consists of 3 green LEDs.
Press the charge-control indicator button to actuate the
charge-control indicator. After approx. 5 seconds, the
charge-control indicator goes out automatically.
The charge condition can also be checked when the battery
is removed.
LED Indication Battery Capacity
Continuous lighting of 3 ≥ 2/3
green LEDs
Continuous lighting of 2 ≥ 1/3
green LEDs
Continuous lighting of 1 ≤ 1/3
green LED
Flashing of 1 green LED Reserve
When no LED lights up after pressing the button, then the
battery is defective and must be replaced.
For safety reasons, the charge condition of the battery can
only be checked when the garden product is at a standstill.
During the charging procedure, the three green LEDs light up
one after the other and briefly go out. The battery is fully
charged when the three green LEDs light up continuously.
The three green LEDs go out again approx. 5 minutes after
the battery has been fully charged.
Charging Advice
With continuous or several repetitive charging cycles without
interruption, the charger can warm up. This is not meaning-
ful and does not indicate a technical defect of the battery
charger.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indic-
ates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Assembly
Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainten-
u
ance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport
and storage, remove the battery from the power tool.
