If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the

Centre in order to avoid a hazard.
Never attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries.
Have defective cords replaced immediately.
Do not expose the battery charger to water.

Batteries
Warning! Never attempt to charge a frozen battery.
Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur.
When you notice liquid on the batteries, carefully wipe the
liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below.
Warning! Battery fluid is a diluted sulphuric acid and may
cause personal injury or damage to property. In case of skin
contact, immediately rinse with water. If redness, pain or
irritation occurs seek medical attention. In case of eye contact,
rinse immediately with clean water and seek immediate
medical attention.
When disposing of batteries, follow the instructions given
in the section "Protecting the environment".
Add distilled water in each cell until the battery acid
reaches the level specified by the battery manufacturer.
This helps to purge excess gas from the cells. Do not
overfill. For a battery without cell caps (maintenance free),
carefully follow the manufacturer's charging instructions.
Study all the battery manufacturer's specific precautions,
such as removing or not removing cell caps while charging,
and the recommended charging rates.
Make sure that the initial charging rate does not exceed the
battery manufacturer's requirement.
