reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsi-
ble for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• To charge the battery, use only
the charger supplied. Risk of fire
and explosion. This ensures that the
safety of the device is maintained.
• Before each use, check the
charger, cable and plug and
have them repaired by qualified
professionals and only with orig-
inal parts. Do not use a defective
charger and do not open it up
yourself. This ensures that the safety of
the device is maintained.
• Connect the charger only to a
socket with an earth. Ensure that
the mains voltage matches the
specifications on the charger rat-
ing plate. Risk of electric shock.
• Disconnect the charger from the
mains before closing or opening
connection to the battery / pow-
er tool / device. This ensures that the
battery and charger are not damaged.
• Keep the charger clean and
away from wet and rain. Do not
use the charger outdoors. Dirt and
the entry of water increase the risk of
electric shock.
• Operate the charger only with
the appropriate original batter-
ies. Charging other batteries may result
in injuries and risk of fire.
• Avoid mechanical damage to
the charger. This can result in internal
short circuits.
• Do not operate the charger on a
combustible surface (e.g. paper,
textiles). Risk of fire due to heating
during charging.
• If the power cable for this equipment is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, a customer service agent
of the same or a similarly qualified per-

• The battery of the appliance is not fully
charged at the time of delivery. It there-
fore needs to be fully recharged before
you use it for the first time. For the first

charge the battery for about 1 hour. Slot
the battery into the base and plug the
battery charger into a mains outlet.
• When the battery is fully charged,
unplug the charger from the mains and
from the appliance. Charging time is
approx. 5 hour.
• Do not charge the battery continuously.
Repeatedly charging small capacities
may damage the battery cells.
