Change the battery
)
1. Hold the battery with both hands and press the fixing clips.
2. Pull the battery carefully downwards.
A battery should always be attached to ensure the optimum weight balance for the HDS6000.
)
Never remove the battery while the HDS6000 is switched on.
Precautions:
Switch off the HDS6000 beforehand or
use the external power supply

Description of the System HDS6000 15
Primary use/charging
The battery must be charged prior to using it for the first time because it is deliv­ered with an energy content as low as possible.
For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is effectual to make only one charge/discharge cycle.
For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient. We recommend carrying out the process when the battery capacity indicated on the charger or on a Leica Geosystems product deviates significantly from the actual battery capacity available.
The permissible temperature range for charging is between 0°C to 40°C / +32°F to +104°F. For best results the recommended temperature range for charging is between +10°C and +20°C.
It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers recommended by Leica Geosystems, it is not possible to charge the battery if the temperature is too high.
Description of the System
Operation/Discharging
The batteries can be operated from 0°C to 40°C / +32°F to °104°F.
Low operating temperatures reduce the capacity that can be drawn; very high
16HDS6000
operating temperatures reduce the service life of the battery.
Charging the battery
1. Turn off the battery charger.
2. Plug the power cable into the battery charger and into an A/C plug.
3. Using the charging cable connect the charging cradle and the battery charger.
4. Place the battery onto the charging cradle.
5. Turn on the battery charger. Its power indi­cator LED switches on.
6. After 30sec initialization, the charging cradle’s battery status indicators will indicate the current battery charging status.
7. After charging the battery, turn off the battery charger.
8. Disconnect the cables.

a) Battery status indicators b) Power indicator LED c) Error LED
If all four LEDs flash continuously then there is no battery in the charging cradle.
The overall charging capacity of the battery is divided into quarters. Each LED corresponds to a quarter:
• If the battery charge state is low the appropriate LED
flashes slowly.
• The LED flashes faster as the charge state improves.
• If an LED illuminates constantly the battery has reached
the appropriate level of charge.
• When all four LEDs illuminate constantly the battery is
100% charged.
Error LED The red LED illuminates if there is a fault in the electricity supply.

To avoid electric shock power cable and power outlet must be grounded.
Please refer to "HDS6000 Battery" in "4 Trouble-shooting". The green power indicator LED illuminates if the charging cradle
is under voltage.
