IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES ON CHARGER
AND BATTERY BLOCK
If you come into contact with acid from the battery
block, rinse it off with water immediately. If acid gets
into your eyes, rinse out your eyes at
once with water and contact a doctor immediately!
1. Read and note the operating instructions and safety
notes for the charger and battery block before use!
2. NB! Only use the charger and battery block that
were supplied by the manufacturer - otherwise you
will risk an accident.
3. Protect the charger, battery block and power tool
from moisture, e.g. rain or snow.
4. Always check that all cables are connected correctly
before using the charger.
5. If you discover that a cable is damaged, you should
not use the charger again. Have the damaged cable
replaced immediately.
6. When the charger is not in use, the mains plug should
be removed from the power socket. Do not pull out
the plug by grasping the cable.
7. If the charger has been dropped or has otherwise
been exposed to high mechanical stresses, you
should have it checked for damage by an authorised
dealer before using it again. Damaged parts should be
repaired.
8. Exercise caution when handling the battery block
and do not drop it or expose it to impacts.
9. Never attempt to repair the charger or battery block
yourself. Repairs must always be carried out by an
authorised dealer - otherwise you risk an accident.
10. Before cleaning or servicing the charger or battery
block, always pull the plug from the charger socket.
11. Never charge the battery block when the ambient
temperature is below 10°C or above 40°C.
12. The air vents in the charger must never be blocked.
13. The battery block must not be short-circuited.
A short-circuit will cause a high current to flow. This
may result in overheating, the danger of fire or
explosion of the battery block. This may damage the battery
block or the user may risk an accident.
Therefore:
1. Do not connect any cables to the poles of the battery
block.
2. Take care that there are no metal objects (nails, paper
clips, coins, etc.) on the contact surface of the battery
block.
3. Do not expose the battery block to water or rain.
4, Only use the battery block supplied in combination
with this cordless drill/screwdriver so as to avoid faults
and/or risks to persons.
14. A damaged battery block or one that can no longer
be charged must be disposed of as special waste. Do
not discard it with household waste.
15. Never throw the battery block onto a fire or into
water. This will risk explosion!
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Always check whether your battery voltage
matches that shown on the rating plate. Also find
out whether your mains voltage matches the input voltage of
the charger.
The battery charger is doubly insulated in
compliance with EN60335; it therefore does not
require earthing.
Replacing cables or plugs
Dispose of old cables or plugs immediately they are
replaced by new ones. Connecting a plug on a loose
cable to a socket is dangerous.
