The battery may only be replaced by a spe-
cialist dealer. The characteristic curve of
the battery charger set at the factory corre-

be changed. Setting the characteristic curve
incorrectly can result in permanent damage to
the battery.
The battery type can be set by means of a switch located
at the bottom of the battery charger (covered by a green
adhesive label). Once the battery type has been set, the
green LED flashes at the beginning of the charging proc-
ess.
When handling the battery charger, the following safety
instructions must be observed:

Always place the rubber feet of the battery charger
on a level surface.

Protect the battery charger from direct sunlight to
prevent the charger from getting any warmer than it
already is.
