The maximum recharge time is limited at approx.
3,5 hours on an empty battery depending on
ambient temp. and Battery condition. The rechar-
geable battery pack can be recharged at any time
even if it is only used for a few minutes and the ca-
pacity is still very high. The Battery is protected and
can’t be overcharged due to -delta U and tempera-
ture detection of the charger.
The Z2 detector will automatically turn o when
the battery is low for safety reasons. When trying to
turn on the detector with low battery the display
shows LOW BAT and turns o automatically.
When disconnecting the charger from the mains it is
important to disconnect the plug from the Z2 as well
to avoid a slow discharge of the built- in batteries!
The supplied charger has got a wide range of input
voltages in order to t with any country mains. In
conjunction with the NiMH batteries which are con-
sidered as dry batteries with no specic transport
obligations for land maritime or air, this battery/
charge system is therefore designed for worldwide
operation. To guarantee a long lifetime of the bat-
tery pack it should never be completely discharged,
as this can result in a loss of capacity or complete
damage of the battery.
The capacity of the battery can always be checked
when turning the LORENZ DEEPMAX Z2 on with
the Battery icon on the top of the LC Display. If it
is lower than 2 bars the battery is nearly empty
and less than 1 hour usage time can be expected.
Recharging of low batteries would be essential. The
supplied batteries have a very low self discharge
therefore fully charged batteries will have appro-
ximately 70 to 80% of their capacity after one year
time. Resulting damages of low discharged batte-
ries can’t be covered by warranty. The life time of
the supplied battery pack is limited to ve years.
After this period of time the capacity of the battery
will constantly decrease, which makes an exchange
by your dealer or manufacturer necessary.
The following safety information must be read befo-
re using the charger supplied with every DEEPMAX
Z2 detector:
Please read the user instructions before using
the charger
For indoor use only (protect against moisture)
Do only use to recharge NiMH batteries available
from the manufacturer of the LORENZ DEEPMAX Z2
Rechargeable batteries supplied with the LO-
RENZ DEEPMAX Z2 contain chemical substances
they are subject to special waste disposal.
Note: Only spare parts and accessories available
from the manufacturer of the LORENZ DEEPMAX Z2
should be used. Turn o the LORENZ DEEPMAX Z2
when it is not in use or when planning to store it. Re-
charge a discharged battery immediately. Discon-
nect all plugs from the control box when transport-
ing or planning to store it! Please make sure that the
universal connector of the Z2 is always kept dry and
clean and that no conducting material is in the near
of the connector when storing it. It is always neces-
sary to take special precautions of avoiding short
circuits when handling with batteries!
Never charge the batteries of your Z2 or the Z2 Pow-
er Bank (Battery + GPS module) when these electro-
nics control housings are very warm due to expo-
sure to sunlight or very high ambient temperature.
Malfunctioning batteries, chargers or electronics
devices must not be used any more! Disconnect the
coil connector while charging batteries of your Z2!
