discharge is avoided.
3.2 Regulations and References
Protect the batteries from heat (e.g. long times of exposure to direct sunlight) and fire. Do not immerse the
batteries into fluids. Otherwise there is a risk of explosions.
§Risk of Damage and Explosion Because of Incorrect Treatment
Unintentional or incorrect treatment can damage the batteries, which can even lead to
explosions of the batteries!
Batteries that are integrated into the devices of or are delivered with them, ma onl be charged with the
intended chargers from .
These components are compatible to each other, other chargers ma damage the s stem or ma reduce the
capacit or life span of the batteries significantl .
Respect the following references when operating the chargers:
•Use chargers only for charging devices and batteries.
•Switch devices off before connecting the charger.
•Do NOT switch on the device during the charging process.
•Maximum charging current 1 A.
•Disconnect charger before turning on the device on.
•Prior to the first use, charge the batteries completel .
•Charge the batteries before use if ou have not used them for a longer period (self discharge of the NiMH
batteries) and after use.
•To avoid capacit loss due to the memor effect, discharge the batteries completel ever 5 charging c cles. To
do this, leave the device on, until it turns off b itself. Then start the charging process as described above.
§Risk Through High Voltage at the Charging Device
•The charger works with mains voltage.
•Securit references for work with mains voltage must be followed.
!
Warning of Reduced Capacity and Life Span of the Batteries due to Maloperation
Use onl the intended chargers from .
Powered devices must never be used with a connected charger, e.g. for buffering an empt
batter .
Disregard can lead to a loss of capacit and a shortened life span of the batter in a short time.
