b) Charger/Mains Voltage
•
The charger is constructed pursuant to protection class II.
•
Use only a proper mains socket of the public supply mains for voltage/current sup-
ply of the charger. Before connecting, check if the connection values at the rating
plate of the charger match those of your building connection.
•
The socket to which the charger is connected must be easily accessible.
•
Do not pull the charger from the mains socket at the cable.
• Use a suitable, non-flammable, heatproof surface for charging. Never place the
cordless screwdriver on a flammable surface for charging (e.g. carpet, tablecloth).
•
Never cover the cordless screwdriver and the charger when charging. Keep the
cordless screw driver and the charger away from flammable or easily inflammable
materials (e.g. curtains).
•
Do not put any objects onto the cordless screwdriver, the charger and the cable
between the cordless screwdriver and the charger. Protect the cable from sharp
edges.
• Avoid operation in direct proximity of strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields,
transmitter aerials or HF generators. This can affect the control electronics.
•
Never short-circuit the contacts of the charger.
•
The charger must only be operated in dry, closed inner rooms; it must not get
moist or wet. There is a fatal danger from electric shock otherwise! Never touch
the charger with wet or damp hands!
•
Do not place any containers with liquids, e.g. buckets, vases or plants, in direct
proximity of the charger.
•
Avoid direct sun irradiation, strong heat or cold. Keep the charger away from dust
and dirt.
•
If the charger has become moist or wet or damaged, do not touch it. Danger to
life from electric shock! First deactivate all sides of the mains socket to which the
charger is connected (e.g. switch off the respective fuse or turn out the fuse. Then
deactivate the FI protection switch).
Then unplug the charger from the mains socket. Do not use the charger anymore,
but take it to a specialised workshop or dispose of it in an environmentally
compatible manner.
