explosion and fire hazard!
Gaseous hydrogen (detonating gas) may form when charging the
battery. contact with open fire (flame, embers, sparks) may result in
explosions.
• never charge the battery close to an open fire or in places where
sparks may occur.
• always ensure sufficient ventilation.
• Be sure the supply voltage matches the input voltage specified on
the device (220 - 240 v ac) to prevent damage to the device.
• Only connect and disconnect the battery connecting cables when
the charger is disconnected from the mains.
• Do not cover the device whilst charging, as it may be damaged
from extreme heating.
• Immediately stop using the device if you notice smoke or an unu-
sual odour.
• Do not use the device in rooms where explosive or flammable sub-
stances are stored (e.g. petrol or solvents).
risk of electrical shock!
• chargers may interfere with the operation of active electronic
implants, e.g. pacemakers, thus pose a personal hazard.
• the unit is protected against splash- and hose water. however, be
sure to always keep the unit in a safe location. avoid pouring or
dripping water or other liquids over it. If water penetrates electri-
cal devices, the risk of electric shock increases.
• ensure that all plugs and cables are free of moisture. never con-
nect the device to the mains with wet or moist hands.
• never touch both connections at once when the device is in uses.
• unplug from mains before connecting or disconnecting the char-
ging cable with the battery, or when the device is no longer being
used.
• remove all device cables from the battery before attempting to
drive your vehicle.
• always unplug device by the plug. the cable may be damaged.
• Do not use device if damaged. Damage to the power cable, the
device or the charging cable increase the risk of electrical shock.
