Charging Process - Kärcher 18/30 Handbuch

Charging process

Note
New battery packs are only pre-charged and must be
fully charged before first use.
The display is activated during the first charging pro-
cess.
New battery packs reach their full capacity after approx.
5 charging and discharging cycles.
Charge battery packs that have not been used for a long
time before use.
The battery pack cannot be charged outside the permis-
sible temperature value range. The battery pack display
then shows the temperature symbol.
If the display does not show anything during the charg-
ing process, please follow the notes in the "Trouble-
shooting" chapter.
Note
The charging current and the necessary charging time
is temperature-dependent for safety reasons.

When used in the device, the contacts of the battery
pack are protected against spray water. Ensure that the
battery pack engages correctly. With the battery pack
removed, make sure that no water gets on the electrical
contacts of the battery pack and the device. If there is
water there, dry it immediately (by wiping it off / shaking
it out) and place the battery pack with the contacts fac-
ing down so that the water can drain off. Do not use any
heat sources for drying.
Note
The display shows the remaining run time in minutes
while the device is in use.
1. Push the battery pack into the mounting on the de-
vice.
2. Remove the battery pack from the device after com-
pleting the work.
