Using the BatteryLoad, Save & Restore Menu
• The pack cannot be used without the battery cassette fitted.
• The pack can still be used while charging the battery cassette (providing there is
sufficient charge remaining within the battery).
• Use only Bowens approved chargers or permanent damage may occur.
• The battery cassette can be charged either within or outside the pack from mains
using the supplied charger or alternatively from a vehicle using the optional car
charger.
• The battery has no memory effect so it can be charged and discharged from any
state. However, for best results and service life never fully discharge the battery,
charge it as soon as possible after use and keep it fully charged.
• Ensure that a Battery Cassette with sufficient charge remaining for the work
required is fitted into the pack. For best results use a fully charged Battery
Cassette.
• A fully charged Battery Cassette can be checked outside of the pack by plugging
the charger into the cassette and switching the charger on. If the indicator on the
charger changes to green within 20 seconds then the battery is at least 90%
charged.
