Safety instructions
Intended use
This device is designed to charge batteries of effect pedals and other devices. Any oth-
er use or use under other operating conditions is considered to be improper and may
result in personal injury or property damage. No liability will be assumed for damages
resulting from improper use.
Danger for children
Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are disposed of properly and are

Incorrect handling of lithium batteries can result in injury
• In the event of a short circuit, overheating or mechanical damage, lithium batteries
can cause severe injuries.
• When handled correctly and appropriately lithium batteries pose no risk.
• Store lithium batteries in a cool, dry place, ideally in the original packaging.
• Store lithium batteries away from heat sources (e.g. radiators or sunlight). Lithium
batteries are hermetically sealed. Never attempt to open a lithium battery.
• If the battery housing is damaged small amounts of the electrolyte may leak out. If
this should happen, seal the lithium battery in airtight packaging and wipe up the
traces of electrolyte using absorbent paper towels. You must wear protective rub-
ber gloves when doing so. Clean your hands and the affected surface thoroughly
with cold water.
• Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable lithium batteries. When charging lith-
ium batteries you must use a suitable charging device intended for the purpose.
• Before disposing of the device remove the lithium batteries. Protect used lithium
batteries against potential short circuits, e.g. by covering the poles with adhesive
tape.
• Only use powder extinguishers or other suitable extinguishing agents to extinguish
a burning lithium battery.
Quick Start Guide
This quick start guide contains important information on the safe operation of the
product. Read and follow the safety advice and instructions given. Retain the quick
start guide for future reference. If you pass the product on to others please include
this quick start guide.
External power supply
The device can be powered by an external power supply. Before connecting an ex-
ternal power supply, ensure that the input voltage (AC outlet) matches the voltage
rating of the device and that the AC outlet is protected by a residual current circuit
breaker. Failure to do so could result in damage to the device and possibly the user.
Unplug the external power supply before electrical storms occur and when the de-
vice is unused for long periods of time to reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.
Possible damage to lithium-ion batteries through incorrect storage
By deep discharge, lithium-ion batteries can be permanently damaged or lose some
of their capacity.
Before long breaks, charge the batteries to around 50 % of their capacity and then
switch off the device. Store the device at room temperature or cooler in an environ-
ment as dry as possible. If the batteries are stored for a longer period, recharge them
to 50 % every three months.
Fully charge the batteries only shortly before use at room temperature.
