9.

Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord or plug-replace them immediately.

10.

Do not operate battery charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or
otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified serviceman.

11.

Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a qualified serviceman when service or
