Install batteries

Install the batteries (see "Care and

Using batteries made by other
manufacturers
We recommend using our batteries as
described in chapter "Care and Main-
tenance/Recommended batteries".

Charging battery

Note:
The device is equipped with a safety
mechanism to prevent total discharge,
i.e. when the permissible minimum ca-
pacity is reached, the brush motor and
the turbine are switched off.
 Drive the machine directly to the
charging station; avoid any steep
gradients in the process.
DANGER
Danger of injury due to electric shock.
Observe the mains voltage and fuse
protection on the type plate of the de-
vice.
Charging process
Average charging time is approx. 10 -
15 hours.
The appliance must not be used during
the charging process.
DANGER
Danger of explosion
Prior to charging low-maintenance
batteries
Remove waste water tank (see Chap-
ter "Maintenance and care/Mainte-
nance tasks/Removing the waste wa-
ter tank"). This prevents the accumula-
tion of hazardous gases underneath
the tank during the charging process.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage. Do not clean the de-
vice with water while the tank is re-
moved.
