EXPLOSION HAZARD!
Protect yourself from a high-
ly explosive oxyhydrogen gas
reaction! Gaseous hydrogen can leak from
the battery during the charging and discharging
process. Oxyhydrogen gas is an explosive mixture
of gaseous hydrogen and oxygen. The result is
the so-called oxyhydrogen reaction upon con-
tact with open fire (flames, embers or sparks)!
Carry out the charging or discharging proce-
dure in a wellventilated room protected from
the weather. Make sure that there are no sourc-
es of open fire (flames, embers or sparks) in the
vicinity when charging or discharging batteries!
½
RISK OF EXPLOSION OR FIRE!
Ensure that the use of the battery
charger cannot ignite any explosive
or combustible substances, e.g. petrol or solvents!
WARNING!
EXPLOSIVE GASES!
AVOID FLAMES AND SPARKS! Ensure
that there is adequate ventilation during the
charging process.
½
Stand the battery on a well ventilated surface
while charging. Otherwise the device could be
damaged.
½
DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Ensure that the
positive terminal connection cable does not come
into contact with a fuel line (e.g. petrol line)!
DANGER OF CHEMICAL BURNS! Protect
your eyes and skin against chemical
burns caused by acid (sulphuric acid)
upon contact with the battery! Wear:
Acid-resistant glasses, clothing and gloves! If
your eyes or skin come into contact with sulphuric
acid, rinse the affected part of the body with
plenty of clear running water and seek immedi-
ate medical assistance!
½

the mains current is equipped with standard
230 V ~ 50 Hz, PEN conductor, a 16 A fuse and
a residual-current circuit-breaker! Otherwise the
device could be damaged.
½
Do not place the battery charger near fire, heat,
or subject it to prolonged temperatures of over
50 °C! The output from the battery charger
drops automatically in high temperatures.
½

careful not to cause damage when mounting the
charger in place with screws! Failure to observe
this advice risks loss of life or injury!
½
Use only the supplied original manufacturer's
parts with the battery charger!
½
Do not allow any objects to cover the battery
charger! Otherwise the device could be dam-
aged.
½
Protect the electrical contacts of the battery
against short-circuiting!
½
Use the battery charger only for charging and
maintenance charging of undamaged 6 V / 12 V
lead batteries (wet cell or gel electrolyte)!
Otherwise damage to property could occur.
½
Do not use the battery charger for charging or
maintenance charging of disposable batteries.
Otherwise damage to property could occur.
½
