First charge
Please read this instruction carefully before the
first use of GVX!
The GVX will be delivered with a completely
discharged battery.
Please charge the battery for 9 hours before
first use of GVX.
Then use the battery until it is completely
discharged. Only then will the battery report
correct levels to the software. The correct
battery level in percent will only be displayed
reliably after the battery has gone through
three full charge and discharge cycles. This
is a limitation that exists with all lithium ion
batteries.
