PRECAUTIONS FOR CHARGER
1. Always charge the battery at a temperature of 0 –
40°C. A temperature of less than 0°C will result in
over charging which is dangerous. The battery cannot
be charged at a temperature higher than 40°C. The
most suitable temperature for charging is that of 20 –
25°C.
2. When one charging is completed, leave the charger

Do not charge more than two batteries consecutively.
3. Do not allow foreign matter to enter the hole for
connecting the rechargeable battery.
4. Never disassemble the rechargeable battery and

If the battery is burnt, it may explode.
7. Using an exhausted battery will damage the charger.
