Step 8. Disconnect the power source plug from the electric point.

Step 9. Disconnect the charger plug from the battery.

5.1.3 Refresh charging

Lafree Twist’s charger has the capability to do a battery refresh. Refreshing simply involves the process of fully discharging the battery before it is fully recharged. This process is an essential step to extend the life of Twist’s batteries.

Refresh charging takes more time than normal charging. Depending on the amount of energy that is still in the battery, the process may take approx. 15 hours.

Refresh charging has to be done frequently.

This process has to be executed after every 15 times normal charging, but at least once every 3 months.

This is how to do it:

Step 1.

Hold the battery and turn the key of the battery lock anti-clockwise to open.

Step 2.

Move the battery 45º sideways.

Eject the grip and lift the battery out of the holder.
