Charging the battery
Charge the battery only in dry rooms.
Temperature range: 0°C to 40°C
Use only the intended charger.
Caution! The battery must be fully charged
before using for the first time, in order to cali-
brate the charge status indicator.
The battery will heat up during the welding
i
process. Internal safety circuits and ventila-
tors ensure that the battery is adequately
cooled down before it can be recharged.
 Isolate the battery from the welder.
 Connect the Mobile Power charger (7) to the battery,
see also the Mobile Power charger operating hand-
book.
9 The charging process starts within a few seconds. The
charging process is signalled by a running light on the
charging status indicator (3).
9 At the end of the charging process, all 5 LEDs light up
on the charging status indicator (3) green (maximum
charge).
 Then disconnect the battery from the charger.
When charging the battery, you should ob-
serve the instructions given in the Mobile
Power charger operating handbook.
