b) Mains Adapter/Mains Voltage/Charger
• The mains adapter is constructed pursuant to protection class II. Use only a proper mains socket of the
public supply mains for voltage/current supply of the mains adapter.
• The mains socket to which the mains adapter is connected must be easily accessible.
• Do not pull the mains adapter from the mains socket by pulling the cable. Take it at the side of the hous-
ing and pull it from the socket then.
• If the mains adapter is damaged, do not touch it. Danger to life from electric shock!
First switch off the mains voltage for the mains socket to which the mains adapter is connected (switch
off the circuit breaker or turn out the fuse, then switch off the FI protection switch so that the mains socket
is separated from the mains voltage on all poles).
Then unplug the mains adapter from the mains socket. Dispose of the damaged mains adapter in an
environmentally compatible way. Do not use it anymore. Replace it by a mains adapter of the same
specications.
• Only connect the enclosed mains adapter to the charger. Never use the mains adapter for any other
purposes. The charger and the mains adapter must only be operated together.
• The charger is intended for dry indoor use only. It must not become damp or wet. Avoid direct sun irra-
diation, strong heat or cold. Keep the charger away from dust and dirt. Also do not place any containers
lledwithliquid,vasesorplants,onornexttothemainsadapter/charger.
• When these liquids get into the mains adapter/charger, the mains adapter/charger will be destroyed and
thereisaconsiderablerehazard.Therealsoisariskofpotentiallyfatalelectricshock.
• For more information on acceptable environmental conditions, see the chapter "Technical Data".
• The charger is only suitable for charging the enclosed drive battery (or a spare drive battery of the same
build). Never charge any other rechargeable battery types or non-rechargeable batteries. There is great
dangerofreorexplosion!
• Neverplacethechargeronaammablesurface(e.g.carpet,tablecloth).Alwaysuseasuitable,non-
ammable,heatproofsurface.Nevercoverthechargerandthemainsadapter.Keepthechargeraway
fromammableoreasilyinammablematerials(e.g.curtains).
• Do not place the charger on any valuable furniture surfaces without using a suitable protection. Other-
wise, scratches, pressure points or discolourations are possible.
• Do not use the mains adapter/charger inside a vehicle.
• Keep children away from the mains adapter/charger. Children may short-circuit the rechargeable battery,
whichmayleadtoreorexplosion.Dangertolife!
• Avoidoperationindirectproximityofstrongmagneticorelectromagneticelds,transmitteraerialsorHF
generators. This can affect the control electronics of the charger.
• Never charge the drive battery unsupervised in the charger.
• Always charge only a single drive battery with the charger.
• Before you connect the drive battery to the charger and start charging, the drive battery must be discon-
nected from the vehicle/speed controller. Otherwise, the charger or speed controller may be damaged.
Loss of warranty/guarantee!
• Take the drive battery out of the vehicle for charging.
