supply company.
IMPORTANT! Ensure that the mains connection is earthed properly
The mains voltage tolerances of the devices may deviate from those specified in the
technical data depending on the mains connection.
Dangers from
mains current
and charging cur-
rent
Anyone working with battery chargers exposes themselves to numerous dangers, e.g.:
- Risk of electrocution from mains current and charging current.
- Hazardous electromagnetic fields, which can risk the lives of those using cardiac
pacemakers.
An electric shock can be fatal. Every electric shock is potentially life threatening. To avoid
electric shocks while using the charger:
- Do not touch any live parts inside or on the outside of the charger.
- Under no circumstances touch the battery poles.
- Do not short-circuit the charging cable or charging terminals.
All cables and leads must be secured, undamaged, insulated and adequately dimen-
sioned. Loose connections, scorched, damaged or inadequately dimensioned cables and
leads must be immediately repaired by authorised personnel.
Danger due to
acid, gases and
vapours
Batteries contain acid which is harmful to the eyes and skin. During charging, gases and
vapours are released that may be harmful to health and are highly explosive in certain
circumstances.
Only use the charger in well-ventilated areas to prevent the accumulation of explosive
gases. Battery rooms are not deemed to be hazardous areas provided that a concentra-
tion of hydrogen of less than 4% can be guaranteed by the use of natural or forced vent-
ilation.
Maintain a distance of at least 0.5 m (19.69 in.) between the battery and charger during
the charging procedure. Possible sources of ignition such as fire and naked flames must
be kept away from the battery.
The battery connection (e.g. charging terminals) must not be disconnected for any
reason during charging.
Do not inhale any of the gases and vapours released under any circumstances - Make
sure the area is well ventilated.
To prevent short circuits, do not place any tools or conductive metals on the battery.
6

Battery acid must not get into the eyes or onto the skin or clothes. Wear protective
goggles and suitable protective clothing. Rinse any acid splashes thoroughly with clean
water and seek medical advice if necessary.
General informa-
tion regarding the
handling of bat-
teries
- Protect batteries from dirt and mechanical damage.
- Store charged batteries in a cool place. Self discharge is kept to a minimum at
approx. +2 °C (35.6 °F).
- Carry out a visual inspection at least once a week or as often as specified by the
battery manufacturer to ensure that the acid (electrolyte) level in the battery is at the
max. mark.
- If any of the following occur, do not start the device (or stop immediately if already in
use) and have the battery checked by an authorised workshop:
- uneven acid levels and/or high water consumption in individual cells caused by
a possible fault.
- overheating of the battery above 55 °C (131 °F).
Protecting your-
self and others
While the charger is in operation, keep all persons, especially children, out of the working
area. If, however, there are people in the vicinity,
- warn them about all the dangers (hazardous acids and gases, danger from mains
and charging current, etc.),
- provide suitable protective equipment.
Before leaving the work area, ensure that people or property cannot come to any harm in
your absence.
Safety measures
in normal opera-
tion
Chargers with a ground conductor must only be operated on a mains supply with a
ground conductor and a socket with a ground conductor contact. If the charger is oper-
ated on a mains supply without a ground conductor or in a socket without a ground con-
ductor contact, this will be deemed gross negligence. The manufacturer shall not be held
liable for any damage arising from such usage.
Only operate the charger in accordance with the degree of protection shown on the rat-
ing plate.
Under no circumstances operate the charger if there is any evidence of damage.
Arrange for the mains cable to be checked regularly by a qualified electrician to ensure
the ground conductor is functioning properly.
Any safety devices and parts that are not functioning properly or are in imperfect condi-
tion must be repaired by a qualified technician before switching on the charger.
Never bypass or disable protection devices.
After installation, an accessible mains plug is required.
EMC Device Clas-
sifications
Devices in emission class A:
- Are only designed for use in industrial settings
- Can cause line-bound and radiated interference in other areas
Devices in emission class B:
- Satisfy the emissions criteria for residential and industrial areas. This is also true for
residential areas in which the energy is supplied from the public low-voltage mains.

EN

EMC device classification as per the rating plate or technical data.
EMC measures In certain cases, even though a device complies with the standard limit values for emis-
sions, it may affect the application area for which it was designed (e.g. when there is
sensitive equipment at the same location, or if the site where the device is installed is
close to either radio or television receivers).
If this is the case, then the operating company is obliged to take appropriate action to
rectify the situation.
Data protection The user is responsible for the safekeeping of any changes made to the factory settings.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any deleted personal settings.
