electrical	devices.	Children	should	be	supervised	
in	order	to	ensure	that	they	do	not	play	with	
the	device.
J
Children	or	persons	who	lack	the	knowledge	or	
experience	to	use	the	device	or	whose	physical,	
sensory or intellectual capacities are limited 
must	never	be	allowed	to	use	the	device	without	 
supervision or instruction by a person responsi-
ble	for	their	safety.	
J
ExPLoSIoN hAZArD! 
Protect yourself from a high-
ly explosive oxyhydrogen gas 
 reaction!	Gaseous	hydrogen	can	leak	from	
the	battery	during	the	charging	and	discharging	
process.	Oxyhydrogen	gas	is	an	explosive	mixture	
of	gaseous	hydrogen	and	oxygen.	The	result	is	
the	so-called	oxyhydrogen	reaction	upon	con-
tact	with	open	fire	(flames,	embers	or	sparks)!	
Carry	out	the	charging	or	discharging	proce-
dure in a wellventilated room protected from 
the	weather.	Make	sure	that	there	are	no	sourc-
es	of	open	fire	(flames,	embers	or	sparks)	in	the	
vicinity	when	charging	or	discharging	batteries!	
J
rISk oF ExPLoSIoN or FIrE! 
Ensure	that	the	use	of	the	battery	
charger	cannot	ignite	any	explosive	
or combustible substances, e.g. petrol or solvents!
ExPLoSIVE GASES!
 AVoID FLAMES AND SPArkS! Ensure 
that	there	is	adequate	ventilation	during	the	
charging	process.
J
Stand	the	battery	on	a	well	ventilated	surface	
while	charging.	Otherwise	the	device	could	be	
damaged.
J
DANGEr oF ExPLoSIoN!	Ensure	that	the	
positive terminal connection cable does not come 
into	contact	with	a	fuel	line	(e.g.	petrol	line)!	
DANGEr oF ChEMICAL BUrNS! Protect 
your eyes and skin against chemical 
burns caused by acid (sulphuric acid) 
upon contact with the battery! Wear: 
Acid-resistant	glasses,	clothing	and	gloves!	If	
your	eyes	or	skin	come	into	contact	with	sulphuric	
acid,	rinse	the	affected	part	of	the	body	with	
plenty	of	clear	running	water	and	seek	immedi-
ate medical assistance!
J
Avoid	causing	an	electrical	short-circuit	when	
connecting	the	battery	charger	to	the	battery.	
Connect	the	minus	pole	connecting	cable	only	
to	the	minus	pole	of	the	battery	or	to	the	car	
body.	Connect	the	plus	pole	connecting	cable	
only	to	the	plus	pole	of	the	battery!
J
Before	connecting	to	the	mains,	make	sure	that	
the	mains	current	is	equipped	with	standard	 
230 V ~ 50 Hz, PEN conductor, a 16 A fuse and 
a	residual-current	circuit-breaker!	Otherwise	the	
device could be damaged.
J
Do	not	place	the	battery	charger	near	fire,	heat,	
or subject it to prolonged temperatures of over 
50	°C!	The	output	from	the	battery	charger	
drops	automatically	in	high	temperatures.
J
Avoid damaging any lines carrying fuel, electricity, 
brake	fluid,	hydraulic	oil	or	water.	Be	particularly	
careful	not	to	cause	damage	when	mounting	the	
charger	in	place	with	screws!	Failure	to	observe	
this	advice	risks	loss	of	life	or	injury!
J
Use	only	the	supplied	original	manufacturer’s	
parts	with	the	battery	charger!
J
Do	not	allow	any	objects	to	cover	the	battery	
charger!	Otherwise	the	device	could	be	dam-
aged.
J
Protect	the	electrical	contacts	of	the	battery	
against	short-circuiting!
J
Use	the	battery	charger	only	for	charging	and	
maintenance	charging	of	undamaged	6	V	/	12	V	
lead batteries (wet cell or gel electrolyte)! 
Otherwise	damage	to	property	could	occur.
J
Do	not	use	the	battery	charger	for	charging	or	
maintenance	charging	of	disposable	batteries.	
Otherwise	damage	to	property	could	occur.
J
Do	not	use	the	battery	charger	for	charging	or	
maintenance	charging	of	damaged	or	frozen	
batteries!	Otherwise	damage	to	property	
could occur.
J
Before	connecting	the	charging	station,	read	
the	information	on	battery	maintenance	in	the	
operating	instructions	of	the	battery!	Otherwise	
personal	injury	and	/	or	damage	to	the	device	
could occur.
J
Before	connecting	the	charging	station	to	a	
battery	permanently	installed	in	a	vehicle,	read	
the	information	on	electrical	safety	and	mainte-
nance	in	the	operating	instuctions	of	the	vehicle! 
Otherwise	personal	injury	and	/	or	damage	to	
the	device	could	occur.
