INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERIES (cont.)
•
WARNING! Metal parts in the battery
cells are always live. Therefore, do not
put/store objects or tools on the battery.
•
Electrolyte is extremely caustic. Contact
with the electrolyte is not possible during
normal operation.
•
In the event of destruction of the casing
of batteries, the bound electrolyte
released is just as caustic as the liquid
electrolyte.
•
Batteries filled with acid must not be
handled by children.
•
Use only approved lifting and transport
equipment.
•
Lifting hooks must not cause damage to
cells, connectors or connection
cords/cables
Charging
WARNING!
Only use chargers approved by Cleanfix for charging.
Attention! Worn-out batteries can damage environment, should be taken to a centre for hazardous
waste disposal and not mixed to normal refuse collections and disposal.
Under extreme circumstances, little liquid might extend from battery. This does not necessarily
indicate failure or damage.
Care
•
The battery is to be kept clean and dry
at all times in order to avoid leak
currents and sparking.
•
For cleaning, remove batteries, wear
safety glasses and protective clothing.
Select the place of installation so that
dirty water produced during cleaning is
channeled to a suitable waste water
treatment plant.
•
The cell plugs must not be unscrewed.
•
The plastic parts of the batteries may
only be cleaned with water or cleaning
cloths soaked in water without additives.
After cleaning, the surface of the
batteries is to be dried (compressed air,
cleaning cloth).
Storage
•
If batteries are taken out of service for
any length of time, they are to be stored
fully charged in a frost-free room.
•
Due to the batteries’ spontaneous
discharging, recharging needs to be
done at regular intervals.
Faults
If faults are found, the customer service staff must be informed promptly.
Disposal
Old batteries showing recycling symbols are re-usable commercial goods and must be channeled to
the recycling process.
All other batteries are to be disposed of as hazardous waste in accordance with existing regulations.
Warranty
Failure to comply with the operating & handling instructions, carrying out repairs using non-original
spare parts and attempts to carry out the repairs by the user lead to a loss of the right to make claims
under the warranty.
