Charging the rechargeable batteries

WARNING
!
The charger must not come into contact with water. Otherwise
short-circuiting can occur.
Do not charge camera and batteries in areas subject to
explosion hazards. Otherwise, an explosion may occur.
the
CAUTION
!
Charge the battery at an ambient temperature of 10 °C to
35 °C (50 °F to 95 °F). The charger stops charging and
indicates an error to prevent damage to the rechargeable
battery when temperatures exceed this range. The charger
continues charging as soon as temperatures reach the
permissible range again.
Prior to first use, each new rechargeable battery must be charged fully.
A new, fully charged battery allows 4 hours of operation under normal
conditions. The operating time depends on several factors, (e. g.
ambient temperature, brightness of image, image content) and may
vary accordingly. Nevertheless, the operating time is independent of
the application mode.
Dräger recommends to insert a fully charged battery into the thermal
imaging camera before use.
Charge the battery as follows:
1. Insert the power supply unit into the bottom of the charging cradle.
2. Connect the charging cradle to the power grid using the power
supply unit.
3. Place the thermal imaging camera and/or a rechargeable battery

into the charging cradle.
The typical charging time is 3 hours.
