Flashing battery charge indicator
The charging process is indicated by the flash-
ing of the battery charge indicator .
Solid light on battery charge indicator
A solid light on the battery charge indicator
signals that the battery is fully charged or that
the temperature of the battery is not within the
permitted charging temperature range, and
can therefore not be charged. The battery is charged as soon
as the allowable charging temperature range is reached.
When the battery is not inserted, a solid light on the battery
charge indicator signals that the mains plug is inserted in the
plug socket and that the charger is ready for operation.

charged for this reason. The battery is charged as soon as
the allowable charging temperature range is reached.
When the battery is not inserted, continuous lighting of the
battery charge indicator indicates that the mains plug is in-
serted in the socket outlet and that the battery charger is
ready for operation.
Meaning of the Indication Elements
(AL 1830 CV)
(Fast) Flashing of the Green Battery Charge Indicator
The rapid-charging procedure is indicated by
fast flashing of the green battery charge in-
dicator .
Note: The rapid-charging procedure is only possible when
the battery temperature is within the allowable charging
temperature range, see section "Technical Data".
(Slow) Flashing of the Green Battery Charge Indicator
When the charging condition of the battery is

indicator indicates that the temperature of the
battery is not within the allowable charging temperature
range, see section "Technical Data". As soon as the allowable
charging temperature range is reached, the battery charger
automatically switches to rapid charging.
Flashing Red Battery Charge Indicator
A flashing red battery charge indicator indic-
ates a different malfunction of the charging
procedure, see section "Troubleshooting – Causes and Cor-
rective Measures".

Charging Advice

With continuous or several repetitive charging cycles without
interruption, the charger can warm up. This is not meaning-
ful and does not indicate a technical defect of the battery
charger.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indic-
ates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.
