The EZ-Peak 5amp charger is designed for use with NiMH and NiCad packs only!
• ALWAYS proceed with caution and use good common sense at all times.
• Only charge packs assembled with 2/3A (receiver packs and “mini” packs) or
sub-C cells (this is the size used in common “stick packs”).
CAUTION: DO NOT connect the AC and DC inputs to power sources at the
same time. Connecting both inputs simultaneously will cause permanent
product damage, void the warranty, and may cause injury or fire. Keep a
Class D fire extinguisher nearby in case of fire.
• DO NOT allow children to operate the charger. Keep the charger out of the reach
of children at all times.
• DO NOT let any exposed battery contacts or wires touch each other. This will
cause the battery to short circuit and create the risk of fire.
ALWAYS place the battery (all types of batteries) in a fire retardant/fire proof
container and on a non-flammable surface, such as concrete, while charging. NEVER
charge batteries on wood, cloth, carpet, or on any other flammable material.
• ALWAYS charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
• DO NOT operate the charger in a cluttered space or place objects on top of the
charger or battery.
REMOVE flammable items and combustible materials from the charging area.
• DO NOT charge, discharge, or use the battery if it is damaged in any way.
Examples of damage or defects include, but are not limited to: batteries with
dented cells, damaged or frayed wires, loose connections, fluid leaks, corrosion,
plugged vents, swelling, cell deformity, impact damage, missing labels, melted
components, or any other signs of damage.
• ALWAYS confirm that the charger settings exactly match the type (chemistry),
specification, and configuration of the battery to be charged.
• DO NOT exceed the battery manufacturer’s maximum recommended
charge rate.
• DO NOT disassemble, crush, short circuit, or expose the batteries or cells to flame
or any other source of ignition.
• Discontinue charging and disconnect the battery from the charger immediately
if a battery becomes hot to the touch during charging (temperature greater
than 122°F/50°C).
• DO NOT leave the charger and battery unattended while charging or anytime the
charger is ON with a battery connected. If there are any signs of a malfunction,
unplug the power source and/or stop the charging process immediately.
• ALWAYS unplug the charger from the wall outlet and disconnect the battery
when not in use.
• DO NOT operate the charger inside of an automobile.
• AVOID short-circuits by always connecting the charge cable to the charger first
and then to the battery to charge or discharge. Remember to always reverse this
procedure when disconnecting the battery.
• NEVER connect more than one battery at a time to the charger.
• DO NOT disassemble the charger.
• REMOVE the battery from your model or device before charging.
• DO NOT expose the charger to water or moisture.
• ALWAYS store battery packs safely out of the reach of children and pets.
• DO NOT charge batteries if you observe ANY of the following conditions:
- Batteries that are fully charged or have been only slightly discharged
- Battery packs that have been altered from original manufacturer configuration
- Non-rechargeable batteries (explosion hazard)
- Batteries that have an internal charge circuit or a protection circuit
