Additional safety warnings
Battery safety
Read all the safety and general instructions.
Failure to observe the safety and general instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and / or serious injury.
Store these instructions in a safe place. Only use the charger if you can fully
evaluate all functions and carry them out without restrictions, or if you have recei-
ved corresponding instructions.
v
Supervise children during use, cleaning and maintenance.
This will ensure that children do not play with the charger.
v
Charge only lithium-ion batteries of the POWER FOR ALL system type
PBA 18V with a capacity of 1.5 Ah or more (5 battery cells or more).
The battery voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the
charger. Do not charge any non rechargeable batteries.
Otherwise there is a risk of fire and explosion.
v
Do not expose the charger to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
v

v
Always check the charger, cable and plug before use. Stop using the
charger if you discover any damage. Do not open the charger yourself,
and have it repaired only by a qualified specialist using only original
replacement parts.
Damaged chargers, cables and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
v
Do not operate the charger on an easily ignited surface (e. g. paper,
textiles, etc.) or in a flammable environment.
There is a risk of fire due to the charger heating up during operation.
v
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord needs to be repla-
ced, this must be done by FLYMO or by a customer service centre that is
authorised to repair FLYMO power tools.
v
Do not operate the product while it is charging.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved
electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not sui-
table for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted
in its place by an authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be
disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into
a mains socket elsewhere.
