• Ensure that the low-voltage cable between the plug-in mains adapter and the charger
is not crushed or damaged by sharp edges. Install the connection cable between
the mains adapter and the charger so that no one can trip over it.

• This charger may be used to charge up to four rechargeable NiCd or NiMH round
cell batteries of the sizes AA/mignon or AAA/micro simultaneously (also mixed).
Never insert any other rechargeable batteries (e.g. lithium or nickel-zinc batteries,
etc.) or even non-rechargeable batteries into the charger. There is great danger of
fire or explosion!
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation during operation. Never cover up the charger
or the mains adapter.
The fan at the bottom of the charger must not be impaired in its function.
Leave enough of a distance (at least 5 cm) between charger and other objects.
Overheating causes a danger of fire!
• Only the enclosed plug-in mains adapter must be used for voltage/current supply.
• Do not operate the product unattended. Despite a considerable number of protective
circuits, it is impossible to exclude the possibility of malfunctions or problems during
the charging process.
• Do not wear any metal or conductive materials, such as jewellery (necklaces,
bracelets, rings, etc.) while you are working with the charger or batteries at the
rechargeable battery or charger.
• Never place metal lines and contacts between the rechargeable battery and the
charging slot! The rechargeable battery intended for charging must be inserted
directly into the charging chute.
• If the desired charging or discharging process was terminated, remove the rechar
-
geable battery/batteries from the charger.
• Only operate the product in moderate climate, never in tropical climate. For more
information on acceptable environmental conditions, see the chapter „Technical
Data“.
• Never operate the device immediately after it was taken from a cold room to a warm
room. The resulting condensation may lead to malfunctions or damage! The mains
adapter poses a danger of potentially fatal electric shock!
