    ATTENTION

    Risk of damage

    The battery can be damaged by deep discharge.

    Charge the battery before initial startup of the device.

Charging the battery

Note

The device has deep discharge protection, i.e. the device can only be driven when the permitted minimum capacity level is reached. "Charging the battery" and "Charging the battery" appear in the display.

When using other batteries (e.g. from other manufacturers), the deep discharge protection for the respective battery must be reset by Kärcher Customer Service.

DANGER

Inappropriate use of the charger

Flammable gases are generated when the battery is charged

Electric shock

Risk of explosion

Adhere to the mains voltage and fuse values specified on the device type plate.

Only use the charger in dry rooms with sufficient ventilation.

Only charge the batteries in a suitable room. The room must have a minimum volume depending on the battery type and an adequate air exchange rate with a minimum air flow (see "Recommended batteries").

ATTENTION

Accumulation of dangerous gases under the tank during the charging process

Risk of explosion

Pivot the waste water tank upwards before charging low-maintenance batteries.

Note

The average charging time is approx. 10-12 hours.

The recommended chargers (for the respective batteries) are electronically controlled and stop the charging process automatically.

The device cannot be used during the charging process.

  1. Drive the device directly to the charger and do not drive on slopes.

Internal charger

  1. Connect the mains cable to the IEC connector on the device.


    1. IEC connector for charging cable
  2. Plug the mains plug of the internal charger into the mains socket.

    A battery symbol and the charging state of the batteries are shown in the display. The display lighting goes out.

    Note

    All cleaning and driving functions are blocked during the charging process.

    When the battery is fully charged, the display shows "Battery full!".

  3. Unplug the charger mains plug from the mains socket after charging.

  4. Wind the mains cable onto the cable holders.

External charger

ATTENTION

Using an unsuitable charger

Risk of damage

Do not connect the charger to the device-side battery connector.

Use only a charger suitable for the type of battery installed.

Read the operating instructions of the charger manufacturer and observe the safety instructions in particular.

Note

For devices with a overhead guard, always observe the notes in the "Overhead guard" chapter.

  1. Empty the waste water tank.

  2. Set the safety switch to "0".

  3. Pivot the waste water tank to the rear.

  9. Pivot the waste water tank forwards.

Low-maintenance batteries (wet batteries)

    DANGER

    Refilling discharged batteries with water

    Danger of acid burns from escaping acid, destruction of clothing

    Wear safety goggles, protective clothing and protective gloves when handling the battery acid.

    Observe the applicable regulations.

    Immediately rinse off any splashed acid from the skin or clothing using copious amounts of water.

    ATTENTION

    Using water with additives

    Defective batteries, loss of warranty eligibility

    Top up the batteries using only distilled or desalinated water (EN 50272-T3).

    Do not use any foreign additives, so-called enhancing agents, because this will invalidate the warranty.

  1. Add distilled water one hour before the charging process comes to an end. Observe the correct acid level according to the battery label.

    All cells must produce gas at the end of the charging process.

  2. Clean up any spilled water. To do this, proceed as described in the Care and maintenance chapter in the "Cleaning the batteries" section.

Notes on initial charging

Note

The controller does not yet recognize the battery type installed when initially charging the battery. The battery indicator then still works imprecisely.

A "V" to the right of the bar on the battery display indicates that initial charging has not yet been carried out.

  1. Charge the batteries until the display shows the maximum charging state.

  2. After initially charging the batteries, use the device until the deep discharge protection switches off the brush drive and suction.

  3. Then fully and correctly charge the batteries.

    The "V" to the right of the battery indicator disappears after initial charging.

    Note

    If a battery type is selected in the battery menu, the procedure described above must be carried out again. This is also the case if the battery type that has already been set is selected again.

Battery indicator

The charging state of the batteries is shown on the control panel display.

  • The length of the bar shows the charging state of the battery.

  • During the last 30 minutes, the remaining operating time is displayed in minutes.

  3. Clean the suction lips at the suction bar, turn over or replace if necessary.

  4. Close the lid on the waste water drain hose.

  5. Close the cover of the waste water tank rinsing system.

  6. Check the suction hose for clogging and clean if necessary.

  7. Check the suction hose for leaks and replace if necessary.

  8. Check the adjustment of the suction bar.

The cleaning results are unsatisfactory

Remedy:

  1. Set the appropriate cleaning program for the cleaning task.

  2. Use suitable brushes for the cleaning task.

  3. Use a suitable detergent for the cleaning task.

  4. Reduce the driving speed.

  5. Adjust the contact pressure.

  6. Adjust the squeegee blades.

  7. Check the brushes for wear and replace if necessary.

  8. Check the water output.

The brushes do not rotate

Remedy:

  1. Reduce the contact pressure.

  2. Check if the brushes are blocked by a foreign body and remove the foreign body if necessary.

  3. If the motor is overloaded, let the motor cool down.

  4. Set the programme switch to "OFF".

  5. Wait 10 seconds.

  6. Set the program switch to the desired program.

  7. Check that the plug of the device is plugged into the cleaning head.

The device does not brake

Remedy:

  1. Remove the brake disabling measures (see "Assembly/Unpacking/Pushing the device off the pallet").

The waste water drain hose is clogged

Remedy:

  1. Open the dosing unit cover at the drain hose.

  2. Pull the suction hose off the suction bar and close it by hand.

  3. Set the programme switch to "Vacuum".

    The blockage is sucked out of the drain hose into the waste water tank.

The "Dose" detergent dosing unit does not work

Remedy:

  1. "Dose" version only: Call Customer Service.
