temperature changes.
Warning:
Condensation on the surface of the charger may affect electrical safety!
If you discover condensation on the charger, store it at a temperature
within the specified or operating temperature range until any trace of condensation disappears
- although at least 4 hours - before connecting the charger to the mains power or the
wheelchair.
Warning:
For safety reasons, batteries must not be repeatedly recharged if the charger has reported
that the battery is faulty (see diagram 2) - Contact your battery supplier.

charging process.
-
Avoid touching the charger's base and rear plate when the charger is on and for 10
minutes after it has been switched off.
