• The feet of the device and the temperature of the casing may produce pressure marks
and discolouration on sensitive surfaces. The same applies to the battery.
• As already described in the safety information, a suitable non-flammable and heat-
proof base should be used for the charger and the battery to be charged. Do not
place the charger or battery on expensive furniture!
• Maintain enough distance away from flammable objects or surfaces.
• Do not leave the charger unattended while it is in operation.
• Although there are a wide range of safety mechanisms on the charger, the possibility
of the battery or charger becoming overheated or damage to the battery can never be
excluded.
• The use of charging cables that are too thin or problems with the contacts may lead to
dangerous operating conditions!
• Check the temperature of the battery from time to time during the charging process.
• NiMH and NiCd batteries become very hot when using high charge currents (1C).
Temperatures of 50°C or above can be reached. For this reason, handle the battery
with care. If the battery overheats, it could be damaged. In this case, reduce the
charge current.
• In general, LiPo batteries should not get warmer than is safe to touch during the
charging process (charge current max. 1C) A large temperature increase indicates a
defective battery or a defective cell in the battery pack.
• For safety reasons, lithium batteries (LiPo, LiIon, LiFe) with more than one cell must
always be charged using a charge process with balancer.
• If the balancer plug does not fit in the appropriate charger socket, an appropriate
adapter must be used.
20. Disposal
Old electronic devices are recyclable and should not be disposed of in the household
