Special Operation safety for the charger 

1.  Recharge only with the charger specified by 

the manufacturer. Do not use the original 

charger on other li-ion batteries or on any 

other type of battery—fire or explosion may 

occur.

2.  Check the battery charger, cable and plug 

each time before using. Do not use the 

battery charger when defects are detected. 

Do not open the battery charger yourself and 

have it repaired only by qualified personnel 

using original spare parts.

3.  The charger is designed to use standard 

household 100~240 V, 50/60 Hz power 

source. The charger’s plug must match the 

outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. 

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will 

reduce risk of electric shock.

4.  Do not abuse the cord of charger. Never use 

the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging 

the charger. Keep cord away from heat, oil, 

sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or 

entangled cords increase the risk of electric 

shock.

otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

6.  Keep the battery charger clean. 

Contamination may cause the danger of 

electric shock.

7.   Protect the battery charger from rain and 

moisture. The penetration of water in a 

battery charger increases the risk of electric 

shock.

8.    Do not operate the battery charger on easily 

inflammable surfaces (e.g. paper, textiles, 

etc.) or in combustible environments. There 

is danger of fire due to the heating of the 

battery charger during charging.
