lack of experience, should not use without the control or instruction from a skilled or qualified person.
• The charger runs with 100-240 Volts alternating current, which is not suitable for children – Danger of Life. And beware of risk of electric shock
at all times.
• Avoid flammable gases, solvents or vapours all the time. Prevent open flame or sparks while charging in progress. Explosion RISK!
• Ensure sufficient air ventilation and prevent open flame or sparks while charging in progress.
• The charger is exclusively designed for charging rechargeable batteries and must not be used for other purposes. Corresponding model should
be selected for particular lithium-based or lead-based batteries.
