Safety instructions

Read all the safety

and general instructions. Failure to observe the safety and general instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Store these instructions in a safe place.

Only use the charger if you can fully evaluate all functions and carry them out without restrictions, or if you have received corresponding instructions.

This charger is not intended for use by children or persons with physical,

sensory or mental limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge. This charger can be used by children aged 8 or older and by persons who have physical, sensory or mental limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge if a person responsible for their safety supervises them or has instructed them in the safe operation of the charger and they understand the associated dangers.

Otherwise, there is a risk of operating errors and injuries.

Supervise children during use, cleaning and maintenance.

This will ensure that children do not play with the charger.

Only charge 18V POWER FOR ALL system batteries with a capacity of 1.5 Ah and above. The battery voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the charger. Do not charge any non-rechargeable batteries. Otherwise there is a risk of fire and explosion.

Only use the charger in enclosed spaces and do not expose it to wet conditions. Water entering a charger increases the risk of electric shock.

Keep the charger clean. Dirt poses a risk of electric shock. Always check the charger, including the cable and plug, before use. Stop using the charger if you discover any damage. Do not open the charger yourself, and have it repaired only by Husqvarna or by an authorized after-sales service center using only original replacement parts. Damaged chargers, cables, and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not operate the charger on an easily ignited surface (e.g., paper, textiles, etc.) or in

a flammable environment. There is a risk of fire due to the charger heating up during operation.

Do not cover the ventilation slots of the charger. Otherwise, the charger may overheat and no longer function properly. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapors may also be emitted. Ensure the

area is well-ventilated and seek medical attention should you experience any adverse effects. The vapors may irritate the respiratory system.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

Products sold in GB only:

Your product is fitted with a BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in

its place by an authorized customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains socket elsewhere.

Product description and specifications

Charging currentA)	2,0 A
Battery charging voltage (automatic voltage detection)	14,4–18 V---
Weight according to EPTA-Procedure 01:2014	0,21 kg

A) Depends on temperature and rechargeable battery type

Charging process

▶ Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the power source must match the voltage specified on the rating plate of the charger.

Ensure that the charging bay (1) and the battery contacts are free of coarse dirt. Ensure that the battery is fully inserted.

The charging process begins as soon as the mains plug for the charger is inserted into the mains socket and the battery is inserted into the charging bay (1).

The charging process is only possible when the temperature of the battery is within the permitted charging temperature range (0–45 °C).

Thanks to the intelligent charging process, the state of charge of the battery is automatically detected and then charged up with the optimal charge current depending on battery temperature and voltage.

In this way, the battery is treated with care and remains permanently fully charged when it is stored in the battery charger. A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.

When the charger is used continuously, or for several consecutive charge cycles without interruption, the charger may heat up. This is, however, harmless and does not indicate that the charger has a technical defect.

Charging times

The following table displays the approximate time required in minutes in order to reach the required state of charge, depending on the battery type. The charging time depends on the battery type and the temperature.

What the display elements mean

Flashing light battery charge indicator

The charging process is indicated by the flashing of the battery charge indicator (2).

Continuous light green battery charge indicator

A continuous light on the battery charge indicator (2) signals that the battery is fully charged or that the temperature of the battery is not within the permitted charging temperature range (0–45 °C), and therefore cannot be charged. The battery is charged as soon as the permitted charging temperature range is reached.

When there is no battery inserted, the continuous light of the battery charge indicator (2) signals that the mains plug is plugged into the plug socket and that the charger is ready to be used.

Troubleshooting

Battery is not being charged

Battery is not being charged and the battery charge indicator (2) is lit up continuously.
