Charging The Battery - Decon wheel e-move User Manual

Charging the battery

Put one end of the lead (A) in the charger (B), as shown in figure 1. The other end is put into a 100-
240V socket. * Then carefully place the battery into the charger.
There are two types of charging processes; quick charging and reconditioning. The battery must be
reconditioned from time to time to ensure optimum battery life and to avoid deterioration of battery
capacity. See the section on reconditioning, opposite page.
Quick charging
1) Place the battery in the charger. If the battery is at the correct temperature 0-40°C, the green
charging light (A, fig. 2) will come on. The battery will be fully charged 2-3 hours later (the
charging process may take longer if the battery is charged in a very warm or cold place).
2) If the battery temperature is too high (over 40°C) or too low (under 0°C), the green charging light
(A, fig. 2) will flash until the battery temperature becomes suitable. The charging process will then
start automatically.
3) The capacity lights (B, figure 1) on the battery indicate the stage in the charging process.
4) When the process is complete, the charging lights and the battery's capacity light go out
automatically.
NB! Do not charge a battery, which is already charged, as this will shorten its life.
Reconditioning
When reconditioning, discharging and charging are carried out automatically. As the battery is first
discharged completely and then charged, the battery life will be extended.
1) Place the battery in the charger.
2) If the battery requires reconditioning, the yellow reconditioning light will flash (C, figure 2).
If the red start button (D, figure 2) is pressed whilst the reconditioning light flashes (for about
10 seconds), the reconditioning light will come on and the reconditioning process will start.
3) The battery's capacity lights indicate the stage in the charging process in the same war as during
quick charging. Reconditioning time varies according to battery capacity. The process takes
approximately 3-13 hours.
