Charging the Battery
WARNING!
Danger of Explosion! Use only HETRONIC original parts. If no original HETRONIC parts are used there could be a danger of explosion! An explosion may result in the release of harmful gases or fumes and / or flying debris. This may result in injury or death of the operator or others present within the work area.
Your HETRONIC radio remote control system will be delivered with fully charged batteries, that means your radio remote control system is immediately ready for operation. Battery Charging Instructions: Type GL: Insert the battery with both guide pins in the corresponding guide bars in the battery compartment of the battery charger. Type Nova: Place the battery with both guide bars on the lower side of the battery in the corresponding grooves of the battery charger’s battery compartment. Now press the battery on the marked spot until it latches into its compartment. The green LED on the charger stays lit during the charging process. When the battery is fully charged, the LED starts flashing. Insert the second battery into the battery charger to ensure that there is always a fully charged battery available.
2.1.4.
The Battery Charger
The battery charger operates with an operating voltage of 12 VDC / 24 VDC. A green LED indicates the beginning of the charging process. After a charging time of approximately 3,5 hours (type Nova), 6 hours (type GL) the flashing green LED indicates that the charging process is finished. The charger recognises automatically when the battery is fully charged. When it is fully charged, the charger switches to a 'trickle' charging condition. It does not matter whether the battery is discharged or partially charged, as the battery charger automatically regulates the charging process. To reach a long operating time of the batteries, you should charge the battery only when an acoustic interval signal is heard from the transmitter, which indicates that the capacity of the transmitter is nearly exhausted.
IMPORTANT!

The charging unit should be installed in the vehicle and connected directly to the battery via a fuse. This means that it should also be operational when the ignition is switched off. The charging unit’s current consumption is so slight that effects on the vehicle’s battery are minimal. The system is protected against polarity reversal. Ensure that the charging unit will be operated on dry places only.
