1 Before starting up, please obser-
ve the following
1.1 Intended use
The LC 45 battery charger is designed for
recharging the battery pack listed.
The user is liable for damage and injury
resulting from incorrect usage!
1.2 Safety instructions
- Repairs may only be performed by autho-
rised technicians. LC 45 charging device:
Even after disconnection from the mains,
there is still a high capacitor voltage on
the power output component on the inside
of the device.
- Protect equipment against moisture.
- Do not use the charger if the connecting
cable is damaged.
- Protect the cable against heat, oil and
sharp edges.
- Keep the connection contacts of electro-
nic equipment, charger and battery pack
clean.
- Keep the air vents of the electronic equip-
ment and the charger clean to guarantee
the air circulation for cooling.
- No metal objects (metal chips) should
enter the charger at the contact points as
well as through the cooling slits into the
equipment (danger of short circuit).
1.3 Wall mounting LC 45
The charger LC 45 has two longitudinal slots
on its rear by which it can be suspended on
walls using two screws (e.g. button-headed
or fl at head screw with a shaft diameter of
5 mm).
Screw both screws into the wall 96 mm
apart until the screwhead is protruding from
the wall by approx. 4 mm.
2 Charge battery pack
To load the battery pack, push it into the
holder (1.1) on the charger up to the
stop.
Perform this in reverse to remove the bat-
tery pack from the charger.
The battery type used (NiCd or NiMH) is
detected automatically.
Charging is controlled by a microproces-
sor. If a warm NiMH battery pack (>37
°C) is inserted, charging will only be carried
out at a lower charge current. In this case,
the charging time is extended.
We reserve the right to make changes to
the technical data contained in this infor-
mation as a result of ongoing research and
development work.
The LED (1.2) indicates the respective char-
ging state of the charger.
LED yellow – steady
Charger is ready for use
LED green – fl ashing
Battery pack being charged.
LED green – steady
Battery pack fully charged, conservation
charge on.
LED red – fl ashing
General malfunction, e. g. full contact not
being made, short-circuit, battery pack
faulty.
LED red – steady
Temperature of battery pack is outside per-
missible limit.
