c) Location for Installation
• The charger is intended for dry indoor use only. It must not become damp or wet.
If the charger is operated via the mains cable, there is danger to life from electric
shock in case of moisture/wetness on the charger/mains cable!
• Avoid direct sun irradiation, strong heat or cold. Keep the charger away from dust
and dirt. The same applies to any rechargeable battery that may be connected.
• Choose a solid, flat, clean and sufficiently large surface for the charger. Never place
the charger on a flammable surface (e.g. carpet, tablecloth). Always use a suitable,
non-flammable, heatproof surface.
• Keep the charger away from flammable or easily inflammable materials (e.g. cur-
tains).
• Never cover the ventilation slots; danger of overheating and fire. Never push any
objects into the ventilation slots of the charger; There is a danger to life from electric
shock!
• Never block the function of the fan. The fan will start up on its own as required.
• Do not place the charger on any valuable furniture surfaces without using a suitable
protection. Otherwise, scratches, pressure points or discolourations are possible.
The same applies to the rechargeable battery.
• Do not use the charger inside a vehicle.
• The charger must only be set up, used or stored in places that are not accessible to
children. Children may change the settings or short-circuit the rechargeable battery/
battery pack, which can lead to an explosion. Danger to life!
• Avoid installation in direct proximity of strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields,
transmitter aerials or HF generators. This can affect the control electronics.
• Ensure that the cables are not crushed or damaged by sharp edges. Never place
any objects on the cables.
• Do not place any containers filled with liquid, vases or plants, on or next to the
charger/mains cable.
When these liquids get into the charger (or the plug connections of the mains cable),
the charger will be destroyed and there is a most severe danger of potentially fatal
electric shock or fire.
If the charger is operated via the mains cable, first switch off the mains voltage for
the mains socket to which the mains cable is connected (switch off the correspond-
ing circuit breaker or take out the fuse, then switch off the fault interrupter protection
