5. BEFORE USE/ FITTING
5.1 Battery charging, FIGURE 6.
The system has a 100-240Volt, 1.5A battery charger. The battery can be charged when installed
in the P1004 unit or separately.
WARNING: The battery can only be charged with supplied battery charger
(Part No.P-06 03 001).
All new units must be charged before they are used for the first time.
The charger must not be used in any circumstances for any other purpose than for which it was
manufactured. It is intended for indoor use (must be protected from damp) and must not be used to
charge non-rechargeable batteries.
The battery will be fully charged in about 3.5hours (also the heavy duty battery) this depends on
residual capacity.
The red light goes on during battery charged and the light will turn green when it is full charged
(FIGURE 7).
The battery will discharge during a long period in storage. For this reason, always re-charge the
battery if it has been stored for more than 15 days. To achieve maximum power when the battery is
new, or has been stored for more than 3 months, charge and discharge the battery at least twice,
remove the battery out of the P1004 unit and store separately.
Points of attention:
1. Check that the mains supply voltage to the charger is correct.
2. Connect the battery charger to the wall socket.
3. Connect the battery charger to the battery.
