filled with liquid (i.e. vases) on the device.
■ Do not operate the device in the vicinity of open flames (e.g.
candles).
■ Avoid direct sunlight.
■ Charge exclusively rechargeable batteries of the types
"Ni-Cd“, "Ni-MH" and Li-ion.

GB│IE │ 5■TLGL 1000 B1
■ NEVER recharge batteries of other types or non-rechargea-
ble batteries. These are not suitable for recharging. Batteries
not suitable for recharging can overheat and explode. It
could irreparably damage the device and the inserted
batteries.
■ This product is intended exclusively for indoor operation in
dry and enclosed rooms.
Interaction with rechargeable batteries (cells)
■ Do not use damaged or corroded rechargeable batteries in
the device.
■ Rechargeable batteries (cells) can be fatal if swallowed.
Therefore, always keep the device and the rechargeable
batteries out of the reach of children!
■ If a rechargeable battery is swallowed medical assistance
must be sought IMMEDIATELY.
■ Should a battery have leaked, you must avoid contact by the
battery fluid with the skin! The battery liquid can cause acid
burns on the skin!
■ Remove the leaked battery liquid with a dry, absorbent cloth
and avoid contact by it with the skin by wearing, for exam-
ple, a pair of gloves.
Initial use
Items supplied and transport inspection

DANGER
► Packaging material should not be used as a play thing. There is a risk of
suffocation!
Disposal of the packaging
The packaging protects the device from transport damage. The packaging
materials are selected from the point of view of their environmental friendliness
and disposal technology and are therefore recyclable.
The recirculation of packaging into the material circuit saves on raw material
and reduces the amount of waste generated. Dispose of packaging material
that is no longer needed as per the regionally established regulations.
NOTICE
► If possible preserve the device's original packaging during the warranty
period so that, in the event of a warranty claim, you can package the
device ideally for its return.

Handling and operation
In this chapter you will receive important information for the handling and
operation of the device.
Switching the appliance on/off
♦ Place the appliance on a smooth, level and slip resistant surface.
♦ Compare the technical details with those of your power supplier. If they
match, connect the mains cable to an easily accessible mains power socket.
The LEDs light up red three times. The battery charger is now ready for use.
♦ To switch off the battery charger, unplug the appliance from the mains
socket.

GB│IE │ 7■TLGL 1000 B1
NOTE
► Between 1 and 7 batteries can be charged individually:
- 4 x type C or type D batteries in the charging slots 1 to 4 7, plus 1 x
Li-ion battery (3.6–3.7 V) on the charging contacts 5
or
- 6 x type AA or AAA batteries in the charging slots 1 to 4 7, plus 1 x
Li-ion battery (3.6–3.7 V) on the charging contacts 5
Charging Ni-MH/Ni-Cd batteries
♦ After you have connected the battery charger to mains power, you can now
insert Ni-MH/Ni-Cd batteries in charging slots 1 to 4 7and charge them.
♦ The charging process starts automatically as soon as the batteries have
been inserted. The battery charger has an operating status display 2for
each compartment in the charging slot. The operating status display of the
respective charging slots shows the current charge status of the individual
batteries. The display also shows the current charge level of the batteries
in percent.
NOTE
► If one of the operating status displays flashes red for longer than
5 seconds, the battery is improperly inserted or defective.
Charging Li-ion batteries
♦ After you have connected the battery charger to mains power, you can now
charge a Li-ion battery. Proceed as follows:
♦ Match the charging contacts 5to the positions of the positive and negative
terminals on your Li-ion battery, by sliding the charging contacts 5into the
corresponding positions.
♦ Insert the Li-ion battery with its charging contacts lined up with the charging
contacts 5of the battery charger.
CAUTION
► Ensure that the charging contacts 5are only in contact in the positive and
negative terminals of your Li-ion battery. The polarity and voltage of the
rechargeable battery catwalk are recognised automatically by the battery
charger. Li-ion often have more than two contacts. Connecting the charging
contacts 5with the other contacts of your Li-ion battery could destroy your
battery.

■ 8 │ GB│IE TLGL 1000 B1
♦ Fix the Li-ion rechargeable battery in place using the holder 6. To do this,
pull the holder 6backwards until the Li-ion battery fits in the slot and then
let go of the holder 6. The Li-ion battery is now fixed in place.
NOTE
► The bowl of the holder 6can be turned by 180° to allow you to fix Li-ion
batteries of different sizes.
♦ The charging process starts automatically as soon as the batteries have
been inserted. The operating status display 4shows the current charge
status of the battery. The display also shows the current charge level of
the batteries in percent .
Operating status displays
The various displays have the following meanings:
■ The LED flashes red and green once per second: The batteries are being
alternately charged and discharged. (Refresh-Function: older or long stored
batteries are being refreshed.)
■ The LED flashes green once per second: A deeply discharged battery is be-
ing gently recharged with a reduced current.
■ The LED glows constantly red: The batteries are being charged with the maxi-
mum charge current.
■ The LED glows constantly green: The batteries are fully charged and the bat-
tery charger has switched to trickle charge.
In addition, the current charge status of each battery is shown as a percentage
on the display .
Calculating the average charging time
Depending on the type, age and remaining charge in the batteries, the charging
process can take various lengths of time. The average charge time can be cal-
culated using the following formula. Take note however that the times given are
only guiding values.
Ni-MH/Ni-Cd batteries:
Charging time (min) = Battery capacity (mAh) x 1.4 x 60 + 30
Charging current of the device (mA)
Li-ion batteries:
Charging time (min) = Battery capacity (mAh) x 1.4 x 60 + 60
Charging current of the device (mA)

GB│IE │ 9■TLGL 1000 B1
Timer control
This battery charger has a timer control which automatically switches over to
retention charging after 17 hours. This serves as an additional protection against
overcharging should the charge termination not respond due to a possibly defec-
tive battery.
Charging a USB device
IMPORTANT
► Ensure that the power consumption of the USB device is not higher than
1000 mA. For more information, refer to the instruction manual of your
USB device.
♦ Insert the USB connector of the USB device into the USB output 3of the
battery charger.
♦ If necessary, switch the USB device on.
NOTICE
► You can simultaneously charge batteries in the battery charger and a USB
device at the USB output 3. Be aware that the charging current for the batter-
ies is thereby halved and the charging process thus takes somewhat longer.
Cleaning
DANGER
► Always remove the plug before cleaning the device. There is the risk of an
electric shock!.
► When you are cleaning the device ensure that no moisture gets inside it, so
as to avoid irreparable damage to it.
IMPORTANT
► Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, as these can damage
the upper surfaces.
Cleaning the housing
♦ Clean the surfaces of the device with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn soiling
use a lightly moistened cloth.
♦ Never clean the insides of the charging slots with moist cloths. Instead, use
a clean soft brush to clean them.
♦ If soiled, clean the charging contacts with a dry cloth.
