1. SAFETY INFORMATION
• Check the energy station for signs of damage before
each use.
• Observe the mains voltage (230 V~50 Hz).
• Please remember that improper handling of electri-
cal equipment may result in hazards which are not
always recognized by children.
• Keep children away from the car battery and the en-
ergy station.
• Have defective or damaged parts repaired or re-
placed by a customer service workshop unless oth-
erwise stated in these operating instructions. Dam-
aged switches have to be replaced by a customer
service workshop.
• Protect from rain, splashing water and damp condi-
tions.
• Do not place on heated surfaces.
• Always switch off the energy station when it is not
being used.
• Wear acid-proof safety gloves and goggles when-
ever you connect up and charge the battery and
whenever you
fi ll in acid or top up with distilled wa-
ter. There is a high risk of injury from the corrosive
acid!
• Caution! Battery acid is corrosive.
If any acid is splashed on your skin or clothes: wash
it off immediately with soap suds. If acid is splashed
in your eyes, rinse them immediately with water (for
15 minutes) and consult a doctor.
• To prevent sparking due to electrostatic discharge,
never wear clothes made of synthetic materials
when charging the battery.
• Danger! Avoid fl ames and sparks. Explosive electro-
lytic gas is released during charging.
• The energy station contains components such as the
switch and fuse that may cause arcing and sparking.
Mark sure the garage or room is well ventilated!
• Danger! There is an acute risk of explosion if there is
a pungent smell of gas. Do not switch off the appli-
ance. Do not disconnect the charging clamps. Venti-
late the room immediately and thoroughly. Have the
battery inspected by a customer service workshop.
• Do not charge several batteries simultaneously.
• Never charge non-chargeable batteries.
• Note the instructions published by the battery manu-
facturer.
• Note the data and instructions published by the vehi-
cle manufacturer concerning the charging of batter-
ies.
Disposal
• Batteries: Dispose of unwanted batteries only via
automotive workshops, special battery collection
stations or special waste collection centres. Ask
your local authorities for details.
Important
• The energy station is equipped with a maintenance-
free storage battery, which is only partially charged
when delivered.
• The energy station's storage battery needs to be ful-
ly charged before the unit is used for the fi rst time!
• The storage battery discharges automatically when
the energy station is not used for a long time.
• Use only the supplied power supply unit for charging
purposes.
Compressor
• Never use the compressed air to clean your cloth-
ing.
• Do not blast persons or animals with compressed
air.
• Keep all ventilation slots clean and free of dirt.
• Take steps to ensure that the compressor does not
draw in any dust or contaminants.
• Do not use the compressor to fi ll high-pressure tires,
such as those on heavy duty trucks: tractors and
trailers.
• If you want to fi ll several tires, let the compressor
rest for approximately 20 minutes between each fi ll-
ing. The maximum operation time of the unit is 10
minutes. Do not exceed this limit!
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Please remember that packaging, old batteries and de-
fective storage batteries do not belong in your house-
hold refuse. Dispose of these items through the proper
channels.
