IMPORTANT
• The battery is designed for indoor charing only. Please ensure it
is used on an uncarpeted, non-flammable hard floor in a well
ventilated area.
• Do not attempt to use the battery or charger if it has been
dropped or damaged.
• Never attempt to charge a damaged battery, frozen battery or
non-rechargeable battery.
• Do not smoke, use an open flame or create sparks near your
battery and charger during charging.
• Do not operate the charger if the cord or plug is damaged.
Do not attempt to repair the charger if damaged.
• Do not attempt to open or repair the battery or charger casing
as it will void the warranty.
• Ensure the battery is fully charged after each use no matter
how many holes are played. A lithium battery is designed to last
18 holes in a day, not combined multiple consecutive days.
• Never attempt to fully discharge your battery. If your Zip cuts
out repeatedly, please take your model, battery and charger
to your nearest MGI Service Agent.
• It is not recommended that you leave your battery off charge
for longer than 3 months. If you are not playing golf for some
time, fully charge your battery, disconnect it and store it in a
warm and dry environment. The battery will need charging at
least every 3 months and must be charged prior to use.
• Only use this MGI charger with the correct MGI battery. The
wrong charger on a battery may cause damage to the battery
or model. This will also void the warranty of both the battery
and the charger.
• Your lithium battery leads, casing and connections should be
regularly inspected for damage and wear.
• If your leads or connections need repair or replacement,
please contact your local MGI repair centre for assistance
immediately.
• Under no circumstances should a lithium battery that has been
dropped, damaged or immersed in water be connected to a
Zip or charger. By doing so you may create a fire hazard or risk
the battery catching fire. Please safely dispose of your battery
immediately.
