SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Regularly check that the battery charger connection

and sharp edges. Make sure the cable is not jammed
in doors, fences or the like. Otherwise it can cause the
charger to become live.

it in to an authorized service workshop for repair.
• To avoid overheating do not use the extension cord
while it is rolled up.
