10. MAINTENANCE
Periodically check the technical safety of the charger, e.g., check for damage to the power cable or the housing.
If a safe operation can no longer be assumed, the device must be put out of operation and secured against unin-
tended operation. Pull the power plug out of the socket!
Safe operation can no longer be assumed if:
• there is visible damage to the device or to the connection lead,
• the device no longer functions,
• the unit was stored under unfavourable conditions for a long period of time or
• after it was exposed to extraordinary stress caused by transport.
Always observe the following safety instructions before cleaning or servicing the charger:
Live components may be exposed, when the covering is opened or components are removed.
The device must be disconnected from all voltage sources before starting any maintenance or
repair works.
Capacitors in the device may still be charged, even if the device has been disconnected from all
power supplies.
Repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel who are familiar with the hazards involved
and the relevant regulations.
Cleaning
The outside of the charger should be cleaned with a clean, dry, moistened cloth or brush only. Never use aggressive
cleaning agents or chemical solutions as these may damage the surface of the housing.
