Explosion and fire
hazard!
•
Gaseous hydrogen (detonating gas)
may form when charging the bat-
tery. Contact with open fire (flame,
embers, sparks) may result in explo-
sions.
•
Note the correct polarity of the
clamps when charging. Risk of
short-circuits or explosion if con-
nected incorrectly or reversed polar-
ity.
•
Never charge the battery close to an
open fire or in places where sparks
may occur.
•
Always ensure adequate ventilation.
•
Be sure the supply voltage matches
the input voltage specified on the
device (220-240 VAC) to prevent
damage to the device.
•
Only connect and disconnect the
battery connecting cables when the
charger is disconnected from the
mains.
•
Do not cover the device whilst
charging, as it may be damaged
from extreme heating.
Immediately stop using the device
•
if you notice smoke or an unusual
odour.
•
Do not use the device in rooms
where explosive or flammable
substances are stored (e.g. petrol or
solvents).
Risk of electrical shock!
•
Chargers may interfere with the
operation of active electronic im-
plants, e.g. pacemakers, thus pose a
personal hazard.
•
Avoid pouring or dripping water or
other liquids over it. If water pen-
etrates electrical devices, the risk of
electric shock increases.
•
Ensure that all plugs and cables
are free of moisture. Never connect
the device to the mains with wet or
moist hands.
•
Never touch both connections at
once when the device is in uses.
•
Unplug from mains before connect-
ing or disconnecting the charging
cable with the battery, or when the
device is no longer being used.
•
Remove all device cables from the
battery before attempting to drive
your vehicle.
•
Only unplug the cable from the
outlet by the plug. The cable could
be damaged.
•
Do not use device if damaged. Dam-
age to the power cable, the device
or the charging cable increase the
risk of electrical shock.
•
Do not attempt to disassemble or
repair the device. Immediately have
a defective device or damaged
power cable repaired or replaced by
a speciality shop.
