-The batteries included with the robot are 2 standard 12 V lead acid leisure batteries with 115 Ah capacity. We use "Yuasa L36-115" (part no. 901108). If replaced, it's important that the batteries have the correct size and weight. Are the batteries bigger they will not fit. If they are lighter there is a risk that the robot will overturn due to the too low weight.
+The batteries included with the robot are two 12 V AGM type lead acid batteries with 100 Ah capacity (part no 909244).

-===== AGM type =====
+===== Charger =====
-Optionally the robot can be equipped with AGM type batteries (part no, 1209244). Compared witht hte standard type batteries th run time increases significantly with the AGM batteries. In addition to that, AGM batteries are more durable and have a longer life span compared to the standard batteries.
+The charger included is a 24 V 12 A charger which plugs directly into the robot. It is available in both a 230 VAC version and a 115 VAC version.

 The robot shall always be connected to the charger when not used, in order to prolong battery life. Do not let the robot stay with low charge level for any prolonged time as this damages the batteries and shortens battery lifespan. Continued use after battery low warnings will also damage the batteries.

 If the robot has warned for low battery, charge it for at least the same amount of time that it has previously been washing before using it again.
+Store the robot in a heated room while charging as cold temperature can decrease battery life span.
