charger, cable and plug

by qualified profession-
als and only with original
parts. Do not use a defec-
tive charger and do not
open it up yourself. This
ensures that the safety of the de-
vice is maintained.
• Connect the charger only
to a socket with an earth.
Ensure that the mains volt-
age matches the specifica-
tions on the charger rating
plate. Risk of electric shock.
• Disconnect the charger
from the mains before
closing or opening con-
nection to the battery /
power tool / device. This
ensures that the battery and
charger are not damaged.
• keep the charger clean
and away from wet

charger outdoors. Dirt and
the entry of water increase the
risk of electric shock.

with the appropriate
original batteries. Charging
other batteries may result in in-

replaced by the manufacturer,
a customer service agent of the
same or a similarly qualified per-

• The battery of the appliance is
not fully charged at the time of

that you charge the battery for
about one hour. Slot the battery
into the base and plug the bat-
tery charger into a mains outlet.
• When the battery is fully
charged, unplug the charger
from the mains and from the ap-
pliance.
