> Only charge either NiMH or NiCd cells. Danger of explosion if other types of batteries
are inserted! Do not attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries!
> Observe polarities (+/-) prior to insertion!
> Keep the charger in a dry environment!
> In order to avoid the risk of fire and/or electric shock, the charger must be protected
against high humidity and water!
> Before cleaning the unit, disconnect it from the mains and only use a dry cloth!

FunCtional oVerView

> Intelligent charger for 1 - 4 NiMH or NiCd rechargeable cells in sizes Micro (AAA),
Mignon (AA), Baby (C), Mono (D) plus one 9V Block (E)
> Zero Watt Technology means no standby power consumption. The charger automati
cally disconnects itself from the mains power once all the batteries are fully charged.
To charge more batteries press the START button for about 2 seconds to restart the
charging process.
> To start the charging process, press the START button for approx. 2 sec. (if no other
cells are charging already). If other cells are already charging, just insert the new
cells.
> A display of battery status per charging slot can be seen on the LCD (only for round
cells) and by LED indication
> Microprocessor controlled charging and monitoring of the round cell charging status
> Trickle charging of the 9V battery. Will switch off after safety timer finishes if no
other cells are still charging.
> Individual supervision of each battery
> Automatic charging current adjustment for all round cells
> Multiple over charging protection systems and trickle charging for round cells
> Faulty cell detection / accidental Alkaline insertion detection
> Reverse polarity protection
> World wide use (100-240V AC)
oPeration
Connect the charger to the mains power (100-240V AC / 50 - 60Hz).
1. Charging of round cells: 1 - 4 NiMH or NiCd rechargeable batteries of the sizes Micro
(AAA), Mignon (AA), Baby (C) or Mono (D) can be charged. To insert round cells move
the contact bridge backwards and put in the rechargeable battery at the bottom of the
charging slot. Always connect the cells in the right direction for polarity according to
the symbols in the charging slot. Press the START button for about 2 seconds to start
the charging process. The charge status of each cell will be indicated on the LCD panel
and the respective LED above each charging slot (see DISPLAY OF THE CHARGING STATUS
FOR ROUND CELLS). The cells do not have to be inserted simultaneously as the charging
processes are independent from each other. It is normal that cells become warm during
charging. After charging is complete, the charger switches automatically to trickle
charge. The trickle charge for all inserted cells will automatically switch off after one
hour from when the last cell was fully charged (provided no 9V battery is still being
charged). The charger automatically disconnects itself from the mains power by means
of the intelligent Zero Watt Technology. It does not consume any electric power even if it
remains in the power socket.
2. Charging of 9V battery: One 9V Block (E) can be charged when no Mono (D) batteries
