– If you are not sure about any aspect of the machine, do not use it. Consult our Service Department
for advice.
Caution!
Before connecting any battery to the charger please check the pack for damage and signs of
oxidation, damaged seals and leakage. Don’t attempt to recharge any battery in this condition;
it is best simply to dispose of it in the appropriate manner, as printed in the disposal label on
the pack.
Important: charging multiple batteries simultaneously
The negative terminals of the ALC 8500-2 Expert’s four charge outputs are not interconnected inter-
nally, and therefore are not at the same voltage potential. For this reason it is
not
permissible to
connect batteries to different charge outputs whose negative or positive terminals are connected to
each other externally.
Caution! Observe the battery directive!
Defective or exhausted batteries must not be discarded in the household waste. Take such
packs to your nearest trade battery collection point, or your local toxic waste recycling cen-
tre.
