Danger of electrical shock!
Do not place the Battery Charger:
• in the close vicinity of water, e. g. baths and
swimming pools. Should water permeate into the
Battery Charger, the appliance could be irrepar-
ably damaged.
• Remove the power cable from the plug socket
before cleaning the Battery Charger. You can
thus avoid an electric shock. Should water or
moisture permeate the Battery Charger despite
observing all precautions, immediately remove
the power cable from the plug socket.
This device suitable only for use indoors.
Injury hazard!
• Always store batteries out of the reach of
children! There is a danger that children could
swallow batteries! Due to the poisonous content
of batteries there is a danger to life!
• When charging batteries never leave the
Battery Charger unsupervised.
• The batteries could become hot during charging.
NEVER touch hot batteries! There is a risk of
being burnt! After charging batteries, first of all
remove the power cable of the Battery Charger
from the plug socket. Then allow the batteries to
cool down before removing them from the
Battery Charger.
• Should the power cable be defective, immedia-
tely arrange for it to be replaced by a service
partner to avoid the risk of injury.
• The Battery Charger does not contain any user-
serviceable components. Should you open the
housing of the Battery Charger, the warranty
expires! Should repairs be needed, contact one
of our service partners in your area.
• No liability or warranty will be accepted for

housing, repairs attempted by non-qualified
persons or improper use of the Battery Charger!
• Leakage of battery acids can occur, especially
with old batteries. You should remove all batteries
from the Battery Charger if you do not intend to
use it for an extended period. You can thus
protect the Battery Charger from leaking battery
acids.
