> Please read the operating instructions carefully before using the charger!

> This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with 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 responsible for their safety!

> Do not use the device if there are signs of any damage to the housing, mains plug or cable.

Please contact an authorised dealer!

> Only charge either NiMH or NiCd cells. Never mix both battery types. Danger of explosion if other types of

batteries are inserted! Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries!

> Observe polarity (+/-) prior to use!

> Please note that due to the high charging current, use only good quality batteries from a well known brand in

> Keep the charger in a dry place!

> In order to avoid the risk of re and/or electric shock, the charger must be protected against high humidity

and water!

> Before cleaning the unit, disconnect it from the mains and only use a dry cloth!

> Never attempt to open the device!

> Keep away from children’s reach! Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance!

> Fast charger for 1 - 4 NiCd or NiMH cells of the sizes Mignon (AA) and Micro (AAA)

> Charging current selectable by the switch „Fast charge“ / „Standard charge“

> The charging condition of cells is irrelevant before charging

> Automatic start of charging at contact with the battery

> Automatic charging current adjustment

> Reverse polarity protection

> Multiple over charging protection by -deltaV detection, temperature control and safety timer

> Automatic switch to trickle charge

current by the switch „Fast charge“ / „Standard charge“ before inserting fast rechargeable batteries. We recommend

that NiCd cells are charged in the switch position „Standard charge”. Always connect the cells in the right direction for

polarity (according to the symbols in the charging slots). After inserting a cell, the charging process starts automati-

cally. This charger can charge 1 - 4 NiCd or NiMH cells of the sizes Mignon (AA) or Micro (AAA). When several cells

are to be charged, they do not need to be inserted at the same time, as the charging process starts individually. The

charge state of each cell will be indicated by the LED (see LED INDICATORS). It is normal that batteries become warm

during charging. The cooling of batteries is made by a fan. The fan runs once a cell will be charged and turns o when

battery recognised

> Green LED lights continuously „ready“: battery fully charged; after termination of fast charging the unit

switches over to trickle charging; the cells may be left in the charger until they are needed without being

overcharged or losing capacity

> Check, if the outlet has power; connect another functional electrical device to check the power outlet

> When operating in the car, check if the car adapter is correctly connected to the charger and the car-lighter

socket; it is possible that the cigarette-lighter works only when the ignition is switched on

The inserted battery is not being charged:

> Check, if the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity;

> Ensure, that you inserted suitable rechargeable batteries into the charging slot; suitable batteries for charging

are only fast rechargeable NiCd/NiMH battery types of AA and AAA
