b) Connected devices
• Always observe the safety instructions and operating instructions of any other devices which are con-
nected to the product.
c) Installation location
• The product may only be used in dry, enclosed spaces. It must not become damp or wet, otherwise the
mains power supply may cause a fatal electric shock!
• Place the charger on a clean, level surface of a sufficient size.
• Do not place the charger on flammable materials (e.g. a carpet, car seat or tablecloth). Always use
a suitable non-flammable, heatproof surface. Keep the charger away from flammable or combustible
materials (e.g. curtains).
• Keep the ventilation openings on the bottom of the charger unobstructed and in good condition.
• Ensure that the cable is not pinched or damaged by sharp edges. Place the connecting cable so that
nobody can trip over it.
• Do not place any containers filled with liquid (e.g. vases or plants) on or next to the charger. Liquids that
come into contact with the interior components may destroy the charger and cause a fire or explosion.
Disconnect the product from the operating voltage immediately in this case. Discontinue use and take
the charger to a specialist repair centre.
• If any liquids get into the charger, switch off the mains socket to which the charger is connected. To
do this, turn off the corresponding circuit breaker or unscrew the fuse. In addition, turn off the residual
current device in order to disconnect all poles of the socket from the mains voltage. Then, unplug the
charger from the mains socket. Do not use the product any longer; rather, take it to a specialised work-
shop or dispose of it in an environmentally friendly manner.
• Do not place the battery charger on valuable furniture without using suitable protection. Otherwise, there
is a risk of scratches, pressure points and discolouration.

d) Operation

• Never used the charger with devices with unsupported batteries or non-rechargeable batteries. This may
cause a fire or explosion!
• Always set the correct charging voltage. Otherwise, there is a danger of fire or explosion.
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation during use; never cover the charger. Leave sufficient distance
(at least 20 cm) between the charger and other objects. The charger may cause a fire if it overheats!
• To be used for voltage/power supply, the charger may be operated at two mains voltages or DC voltage.
The device can be operated at 110 - 120 V AC or 220 - 240 V AC and 9 - 32 V DC. Ensure the correct
setting of the mains voltage and set the correct input voltage on the charger. Always ensure the correct
polarity.
• Never leave the product unattended during use. Although there is a wide range of comprehensive safety
mechanisms on the device, it is impossible to exclude the possibility of malfunctions or problems occur-
ring while charging.
• Never wear metal or conductive objects (e.g. jewellery such as necklaces, bracelets or rings) when
handling the charger. This may result in a short circuit, which can cause a fire or explosion.
