Charging
If the instrument is fitted with a battery, on connection to the mains:
•
if the user does not press
Charge indicator will be lit in red.
•
when the user presses the
charge during use (Charge indicator in solid red).
Once the battery is fully charged, the Charge indicator lamp is solid green.
When the Charge indicator is blinking red, this mean the power supply is not compatible
with the battery used. Charge is disabled.
It is essential to wait until charging is complete to ensure maximum
independent operating time, which may otherwise be considerably
reduced.
Voltage must be superior to 14V to correctly charge the 9 cells battery (11V).
Only the 6 cells battery can be charged using the cigarette lighter adapter (provided on
option). When this adapter is used with a 9 cells battery, the equipment can be used but
the battery will not be charged (except if the vehicle is started).

When the battery is installed in the instrument, its charge level is displayed in the top
right-hand corner of the screen and also as a charge percentage. Example:
