Safety information and precautions on the charger:
WARNING!
• Before starting the charging process, read and follow all
instructions and precautions enclosed with the charger
and the following precautions and safety information.
• Only use the designated charger to charge the battery.
Your specialist dealer can provide the relevant
information.
• When the charging process is complete, we
recommend disconnecting the charger from the mains
socket first before disconnecting it from the battery.
• Do not expose the charger to moisture of any kind
during charging (water, rain water, snow, etc.).
• Do not carry out the charging process in rooms where
moisture may affect the charger.
• Be aware of condensation. If the charger is brought
from a cold room into a warm room, condensation may
form. In this case, refrain from using the charger until all
condensation has dissipated. Please note that this may
take several hours.
• Never carry the charger by its power cable or the
charger cable.
• Never tug at the power cable to disconnect the charger
from the mains socket.
• Never subject cable and plug to any pressure.
Overstretching or bending the cable, pinching a cable
between a wall and a window frame or placing heavy
objects on a cable or a plug may result in electric shock
or fire.
• Lay the power cable and the attached charging cable
so that nobody can step on it or trip over it and so both
cables are protected against any other harmful effects
or stress.
• Do not operate the charger if the power cable, the
charging cable or the plugs attached to the cables are
damaged. Damaged parts must be replaced
immediately by the authorised specialist dealer.
• Do not use or disassemble the charger when it has
received a hard blow or was dropped or damaged in
another way.
• The charger must not be used by children.
• Never attempt to disassemble or modify the charger.
• Do not cover the charger during the charging process
or place any objects on top of the device.
• Never connect the terminals of the charging plug with
any metal objects.
• Ensure that the plug is firmly inserted in the socket.
• Never touch plugs with wet hands.
• Do not use the plug of the charger and/or the mains
plug if they are wet or dirty. Before inserting it, clean the
plug using a dry cloth.
