• Should batteries leak, avoid skin contact with them. This leads to skin irritation. • Should a battery leak into the Battery Charger, clean it with a dry cloth. Wear protective gloves! - 3 Commissioning • Before taking the Battery Charger into use, check that all items are complete/available and free of visible damage. • Place the Battery Charger on a straight, level, scratch and slip resistant surface. Notice: This appliance is equipped with non slip rubber feet. As furniture surfaces may be made of a variety of materials and are treated with many different types of cleaning agents, it cannot be completely ruled out that some substances contain ingredients which may corrode the rubber feet and soften them. If pos sible, place an anti slip material under the device. • Compare the technical data with that of your current mains power supplier. If they are the same, connect the power cable to a mains power socket. The LEDs blink red three times. The Battery Charger is now ready for use. Charging batteries Danger! Charge exclusively rechargable batteries of the types „Ni Cd“ and „Ni MH“. NEVER recharge batteries of other types or non rechargable batteries. These are not suitable for recharging. They could irreparably damage the Battery Charger and the inserted batteries. There is also the danger of a fire as well as an explosion! Notice: Ensure that the batteries are inserted into the charging slots in accordance with their polarities. Otherwise, the batteries will not be charged. • Insert the batteries into the charging slots. • Press the 9 V Block batteries into the charging slot until they audibly engage. 1 to 8 batteries can be individually charged: • 4 x Type C or Type D batteries in the charging slots 1 to 4, with additionally 2 x Type 9 Volt Block batteries in the charging slots 5 and 6. or • 6 x Type AA or AAA batteries in the charging slots 1 to 4, with additionally 2 x Type 9 Volt Block batteries in the charging slots 5 and 6. • The charging process now begins. The Battery Charger has an LED for each charging slot. The LEDs of the charging slots indicate the charge state of the battery they contain. • In the first 5 seconds the Battery Charger carries out a capacity test: The LED of the charging slot glows green: The battery capacity lies over 90 %. The LED of the charging slot glows orange: The battery capacity lies between 80 % 90 %. The LED of the charging slot glows red: The battery capacity lies under 80 %. The LED of the charging slot blinks red : The battery is not properly inserted into the charging slot or is defect. When the battery capacity has been determined, the charging process begins. - 4 The various indicators have the following meanings: The LED blinks alternatively red and green: The batteries are being charged and discharged alternately. (Refresh function: With this, older batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time will be refreshed.) The LED blinks green: The batteries are being charged by a battery preserving impulse charge. The LED continuously glows red: The batteries are being charged with the maximum charge current. The LED continuously glows green: The batteries are fully charged and the Battery Charger has switched to a trickle charge. Notice: Should Type C or D batteries be charged in the outer charging slots, the operating condition is displayed by the respective outer LEDs. Warning! The batteries could become hot during charging. NEVER touch hot batteries! There is a danger of being burnt! • Remove the power cable of the Battery Charger from the plug socket and allow the batteries to cool down. Afterwards you can remove the charged batteries from the Battery Charger. Calculating the average charging time Dependant on the type, age and remaining battery charge, hence the charging process takes different lengths of time. The average charging times can be calculated using the following formula. Note, however, that the times calculated are only indicative. Current time (Min.) = Capacity of the battery (mAh) x 1,5 x 60 Charging current of the appliance (mA) Automatic charging control/ Retention charging This Battery Charger controls the charging time for rechargable batteries of the types Ni Cd and Ni MH separately. This control is based on the . U („minus Delta U“) calculation. In mathematics, with Delta . differences are described. „Minus Delta U“ in this case means a negative voltage difference. This charge identification makes itself useful in the following effects: Should a battery be charged with a constant current, its voltage rises continuously. When the battery is full, its voltage reaches a maximum and falls lightly with further current flow. This light fall in voltage is recognised by the charging electronics and the charge process is terminated. The Battery Charger automatically switches to „Retention charging“. This means that the batteries are no longer being charged with continuous power, but with short power impulses instead. This counterac...
