Charging the battery pack
J
Before cleaning or servicing the charging station
or the battery pack always ensure that the plug
is not in the mains socket.
Note! A new battery pack, or one that has not
been in use for an extended period, must be charged
up before the first / renewed usage.
The battery pack attains its full capacity after ca.
3-5 charging cycles.
m CAUTION! Always ensure the plug is removed
from the mains socket before inserting a battery pack
into, or removing one from, the charging station.
J
Never charge the battery pack if the ambient
temperature is less than 10 °C or greater than
40 °C.
1. Insert the battery pack

into the quick-
charger

(see Fig. C).
2. Insert the power plug into the socket. The now
glowing red charging control LED
13
indicates
that the charging process has begun. The red
charging control LED

extinguishes as soon
as the battery pack is fully charged.

signals to
you that the charging process is complete and
the battery pack

Never charge the battery pack for a second time
immediately after a fast charging process has
been completed. This can give rise to the battery
pack becoming overcharged and to a reduced
service life of the battery and charging station.

Switch the charger off for at least 15 minutes
between two successive charging procedures.
Remove the power plug from the wall socket.

Your cordless electric drill / screwdriver has a fully
automatic spindle lock
and is fitted with an
enclosed keyless chuck incorporating the latest
technology from
”Made in Germany”.
Once the motor has come to a halt, the drive shaft
is automatically locked, so that the chuck

can
be opened simply by turning it .
After you have inserted the required bit and fixed it
in place by turning the chuck , you can immedi-
ately continue working. The spindle lock releases
itself automatically when the motor is started (by
operation of the ON / OFF switch
