Troubleshooting

9.1 Low charging status

If the appliance's battery charge is insufficient,
the appliance will switch itself off automatically.
During storage, the charge reduces
due to self-discharge. The discharg-
ing process is heavily dependent on
the temperature (approx. 1 % loss
per month on average).
f Before storing the appliance for
long periods, charge the battery
to at least 50 %.
f When storing for longer periods,
check the battery charge at inter-
vals of 3 to 4 months. Charge the
battery as soon as your software
shows a charge of less than
40 %.
f The ideal conditions are cool
storage at a charge of around
50 %.
f Store the product in a dry envi-
ronment.
f You can increase the service life
of the battery by not storing it
fully charged.
WARNING
Explosion and fire hazard
If you connect the "OV-DMC 3" sensor
to the charger after the batteries have
been deeply discharged, the battery
may heat up so much that it catches
fire or explodes.
f The battery is permanently
installed in the "OV-DMC 3"
measuring system and cannot be
removed. "OV-DMC 3" sensors
with deep-discharged batteries
cannot be repaired. Dispose of the
product appropriately.
f Connect the product to the power supply
provided.
f Plug the power supply into a power socket.
