■
This appliance may be used by
children aged 8 years and above
and by persons with limited physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or

provided that they are under super-
vision or have been told how to use
the appliance safely and are aware
of the potential risks. Do not allow
children to use the appliance as a
toy. Cleaning and user maintenance
tasks may not be carried out by
children unless they are supervised.
■
To avoid potential risks, damaged
mains cables should be replaced
by the manufacturer, their customer
service department or a similarly
qualified person.
The charger is suitable for indoor use
only.
WARNING!
■ To avoid potential risks, damaged mains
cables should be replaced by the manufac-
turer, their customer service department or a
similarly qualified person.
Before use
Charging the battery pack (see fig. A)
CAUTION!
► Always unplug the appliance before you
remove the battery pack from or connect the
battery pack to the charger.
NOTE
► Never charge the battery pack if the ambient
temperature is below 10°C or above 40°C.
If a lithium-ion battery is to be stored for an
extended period, the charge level should be
checked regularly. The optimum charge level is
between 50% and 80%. The storage climate
should be cool and dry and the ambient tem-
perature should be between 0°C and 50°C.
♦ Connect the battery pack to the high-speed
battery charger (see fig. A).
♦ Insert the power plug into the socket. The control
LED lights up red.
♦ The green control LED indicates that the
charging process is complete and the battery
pack is ready.
CAUTION!
♦ If the red control LED flashes, this means
that the battery pack has overheated and
cannot be charged.
♦ If the red and green control LEDs both
flash, this means that the battery pack is
broken.
♦ Push the battery pack into the appliance.
■ Never recharge a battery pack again immedi-
ately after rapid charging. There is a risk that
the battery pack will overheat and this will
reduce the lifespan of the battery.
♦ Switch off the charger for at least 15 minutes be-
tween successive charging sessions. Also discon-
nect the power plug from the mains power socket.
