Dangers from
mains current
and charging current
Dangers from acid, gases and vapours
Anyone working with 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 charger lead or charging terminals
All cables and leads must be secured, undamaged, insulated and adequately
dimensioned. Loose connections, scorched, damaged or inadequately dimensioned cables and leads must be immediately repaired by authorised personnel.
Batteries contain acid which is harmful to the eyes and skin. During charging,
gases and vapours are released that can harm health and are highly explosive
in certain circumstances.
-Only use the chargers in well ventilated areas to prevent the accumulation
of explosive gases. Battery areas are not deemed to be hazardous areas
provided that a concentration of hydrogen of less than 4 % can be guaranteed by the use of natural or forced ventilation.
-Maintain a distance of at least 0.5 m (19.69 in.) between battery and
charger during the charging procedure. Possible sources of ignition, such
as fire and naked lights, must be kept away from the battery
-The battery connection (e.g. charging terminals) must not be disconnected for any reason during charging
-On no account inhale any of the gases and vapours released
-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, 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 information regarding the
handling of batteries
Protecting yourself and others
-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).
-Every week, perform a visual inspection to ensure that the acid (electrolyte) level in the battery is at the Max. mark.
-If any of the following occurs, 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.
-heating of the battery over 55 °C (131 °F).
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 operation
-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 operated on a mains supply without a ground conductor or in a
socket without a ground conductor 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 rating plate.
-Never 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 condition 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.

In certain cases, even though a device complies with the standard limit values
for emissions, 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.
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.
Under normal operating conditions, the device requires only a minimum of
care and maintenance. However, it is vital to observe some important points
to ensure it remains in a usable condition for many years.
