Safety information
DANGER
Battery chargers are not a toy and must not be used by children
under the age of 8 years. Older children must be sufficiently trained
on how to use the battery charger. People who, because of their
physical, sensory or intellectual capabilities, or because of their lack
of experience or knowledge, are unable to use battery chargers, are
prohibited from using them unless supervised or under the instruction
of a responsible person. Otherwise there is a risk of mishandling with
consequential very serious injuries.
WARNING
Only use the correct, original charger to charge the battery. The use of
other battery chargers can cause explosions, serious burns and fires.
Further consequences can include malfunctions and a limited battery
life.
Only charge the correct, original battery with the charger. The use of

WARNING
Check the charger, cable and plug before each use. Do not use the
charger if you detect signs of damage. Do not open the charger
yourself, and only have it repaired by qualified experts using original
spare parts. This poses a risk of fire and explosion. Damaged chargers,
cables and plugs also increase the risk of electric shock.
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
such that a potential fire cannot spread quickly (exercise caution with
carpeted floors). Do not expose the battery and pedelec to direct
sunshine 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.
