Information on chargers and the charging process
1. Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger to a power supply
with the voltage marked on the rating plate. Never connect it to a
diff erent mains voltage.
2. Protect the battery charger and its cable from damage and sharp
edges. Have damaged cables repaired without delay by a quali-
fi ed electrician.
3. Keep the battery charger, batteries and the cordless tool out of
children's reach.
4. Do not use damaged battery chargers.
5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other cordless
tools.
6. In heavy use the battery pack will become warm. Allow the battery
pack to cool to room temperature before commencing with the
charging.
7. Do not over-charge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum
charging times. These charging times only apply to discharged
batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or partly charged batte-
ry pack will result in over-charging and cell damage. Do not leave
GB
batteries in the charger for days on end.
8. Never use or charge batteries if you suspect that the last
time they were charged was more than 12 months previous-
ly. There is a high probability that the battery pack has already
suff ered dangerous damage (exhaustive discharge).
9. Charging batteries at a temperature below 10°C will cause chemi-
cal damage to the cell and may cause a fi re.
10. Do not use batteries which have heated during the charging pro-
cess, as the battery cells may have suff ered dangerous damage.
11. Do not use batteries which have suff ered curvature or deformation
during the charging process or which show other non-typical sym-
ptoms (gassing, hissing, cracking,...)
12. Never fully discharge the battery pack (recommended depth of di-
scharge max. 80%) A complete discharge of the battery pack will
