WARNING
The charger is only intended to be used indoors. Keep the charger
away from rain and moisture. If water gets into the charger, there is
a risk of electric shock. If water has penetrated the casing, unplug
the device immediately and have it checked out by your dealer.
Condensation might form on the charger when the temperature
suddenly changes from cold to warm. When this happens wait about
an hour. This is the time a charger needs to reach the temperature of
the warm surroundings. Prevent this happening by storing the charger
where it is used.
The charger and battery may not be covered during the charging
process. Do not use the charger and battery on materials which can
catch fire easily (such as paper and textiles) or within a combustible
environment. This also applies when the battery is charged when
fitted to the Pedelec. In this case, the Pedelec must be positioned
so that a potential fire cannot spread quickly (exercise caution with
carpeted floors). Do not expose the battery and Pedelec to a direct sun
above 40°C. The charger heat generated during the charge process
represents a risk of fire. When there is smoke or an unusual smell,
immediately unplug the mains connector of the charger from the
socket and disconnect the battery from the charger. An overheated
battery is damaged and may not be used again. Always stay with the
charger when it is in use.
Keep battery chargers away from sparks and fires. It can explode
causing severe burns and fires. Further consequences can include
malfunctions and a reduced service life. Ensure there is an adequate
ventilation while charging.
PLEASE NOTE
The mains voltage must match the supply voltage of the battery
charger, otherwise there is a risk of damage to the device. The supply
voltage for the charger is specified on the label on the back of the
device.
Do not charge batteries for a long period if they are already fully
charged or are not being used. Electrical storms, voltage fluctuations
and short circuits can damage the battery.
Keep the battery charger clean. If the contacts are dirty, the dirt can
burn during charging, leaving burn marks. The charger may need to be
replaced in such cases
