Children
Electrical appliances do not belong in the hands of children. Do not allow
children to play with electrical devices when not under supervision.
Children may not be able to comprehend the presence of potential risks.
Rechargeable batteries and small parts represent potential choking
hazards. Keep batteries out of reach of children. If a rechargeable battery is
swallowed, seek medical help immediately. Keep all packaging away from
children as this can cause suffocation.
Charger and Rechargeable Batteries
Insert the rechargeable batteries with the correct polarity. Never throw a
rechargeable battery into fire. Remove the rechargeable batteries from the
Nytech DC-7200 when the device is not to be used for a long time.
Danger of Explosion!
Non-intended use may cause explosion and danger to life. Only replace the
rechargeable battery with an equivalent or a type recommended by the
manufacturer. Never replace any batteries in an explosion-sensitive
environment. While inserting or removing the batteries a spark may be
produced causing an explosion. Explosion-sensitive areas will normally (but
not always) be labelled. These include any fuel storage areas such as
below deck on a boat, fuel lines or tank areas, environments where the air
contains inflammable substances (e.g. cereals, metal dust or powder, etc.)
and any areas where you should normally turn off your car engine.
Respect the environment. Old rechargeable batteries do not belong in with
the domestic waste. They must be handed in to a collection point for old
batteries.

place the device, heavy objects or furniture on the cable and take care that
the cord does not become trapped, especially at the plug and sockets.
Never make knots in the cable and do not tie it together with other cords.
All cables should be positioned so that nobody can trip over them or be
obstructed by them. Do not use any adapter plug or extension cable that
does not meet the required safety standards.

work normally or if the product has been dropped. If you notice any smoke,
unusual noise or strange smells, switch off the device immediately and pull
the charger from the power supply. In this case the device should not be
used further and should be inspected by authorized service personnel.
Please contact qualified personnel when servicing is needed.
