Batteries and charging
WARNING
Safety and caution notes
1. The chargers are designed for indoor
use. Do not use outdoors or expose to
rain, snow, spray or moisture.
2. The charger may be used with other
Gel type batteries, subject to written
confirmation from the Technical
Department of Sunrise Medical.
3. Do not smoke, or create sparks or
flames in the vicinity of the batteries.
4. Avoid standing the charger on carpets
or rugs during use and do not cover the
ventilation slots of the charger or allow
objects to rest on the case.
5. Do not attempt to recharge other types
of batteries such as car batteries, non-
rechargeable batteries, AGM sealed
batteries, wet electrolyte batteries or
batteries of the wrong voltage.
6. Repairs should only be carried out by
Sunrise Medical.
7. The charger is designed for mains input
voltages of 220V AC to 240V AC.
8. Use of an attachment that is not
recommended or sold by Sunrise
Medical, may result in a risk of fire,
electric shock or injury to persons. To
reduce the risk of damage to electric
plug and cord, pull by the plug rather
than the cord when disconnecting the
charger. Make sure the cord is located
so that it will not be stepped on, tripped
over, or otherwise subjected to damage
or stress. An extension cord should not
be used unless absolutely necessary.
Use of an improper extension cord
could result in a risk of fire and electric
shock. If any extension cord must be
used, make sure the pins on the plug
of the extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of
the plug on the charger; and that the
extension cord is properly wired and in
good electrical condition.
