2.2 Recharging your battery

2.4.1
Before charging, make sure the charger is turned off, lift the handle at the top of the battery
to expose the charger socket and connect your charger to the battery. Plug the charger into a mains
socket and turn on the mains socket. A red lamp will light up on the charger to indicate the battery is
charging. When the red light turns green, the battery is fully charged. To optimize battery life, leave
the charger connected for a further hour and then turn off the charger and disconnect it from the
mains after charging. Always disconnect the charger from the mains before disconnecting the
charger from the battery. It is possible that the battery will take up to six hours to charge on the first
three charges.
