2.7 Installing the battery/Charging (see fig. 5)
1. Slide the battery towards the back of the filtration unit.
2. Make sure that the battery is locked in position.
3. The battery can be charged on the filtration unit or separately.
The battery is partially charged when delivered. It must be charged at a 100% before the
first use. It is recommended to charge the batteries at a 100% before each use.
The charger must not be used for anything else than it was designed for. Do not charge
the battery in a potentially explosive area. The charger must only be used indoors.
The charger regulates the charge automatically, once the battery is fully charged, it will
maintain it at a 100% (floating charge). The charge time is 3 to 4 hours.
The battery will discharge itself after long storage periods. Always charge the battery if the
device was stored for more than 15 days. Once the battery is new or has been stored for
more than 3 months, charge it and discharge it at least twice in a row to reach the nominal/
rated charge capacity.
Battery charge:
1. Connect the charger to the mains.
2. Connect the battery to the charger. The connector is above the battery.
3. The state of charge is displayed via a red LED on the mains charger.
4. Once the charge is finished, the floating charge becomes active: the red LED switches off
and a green LED switches on.
5. Disconnect the charger from the mains (do not keep the charger plugged to the mains if
it's not in use).
