Please keep in mind that the rechargeable batteries
can spontaneously discharge. When the batteries are
not used or charged for a long period of time, a
self-discharge may occur. In this case, the batteries'
capacity will be lost and they may become perma-
nently defective. The manufacturer is not liable for any
resulting damages. Therefore, when stored for more
than one month, the batteries should be partially
charged to approx. 50%.
Please always respect the given charging time in order
to prevent overcharging and the resulting destruction
of the battery (the KaWe charging station KaWe Med-
Charge® 4000 has an integrated automatic shut-off).
NiMH rechargeable batteries lose their capacity at low
temperatures (as low as 0°C).
Risks and notice of possible danger: 1. Avoid
short-circuiting the rechargeable batteries. 2. Keep the
rechargeable batteries away from sources of heat and
open flame. 3. Batteries are not to be immersed in
water or salt water 4. Never try to disassemble or
modify the rechargeable batteries or expose them to
heat. 5. Avoid dropping the batteries and protect them
against impact and shock as this may damage their
housing. 6. Only use the rechargeable batteries and
accessory parts recommended by KaWe. 7. When us-
ing a rechargeable battery for the first time, please
make sure to charge it completely. 8. When charging is
completed and the charging unit and the compact
adapter are no longer in use, please disconnect them
from the unit and the wall socket in order to avoid the
risk of fire and other danger. 9. Do not cover the charg-
ing unit with any kind of material (tablecloths, carpets,
bedclothes, pillows etc.) while operating the instru-
ment. If you use the adapter for a long period of time,
it may become overheated, become deformed or catch
fire. 10. Please only charge the rechargeable batteries
in the appropriate battery charging unit. The charging
unit and the compact adapter were designed especial-
ly for use with your unit. Please do not use them with
other products or rechargeable batteries. All other
products may cause the build-up of excessive heat or
distortion and thus cause a risk of fire and electric
shock. 11. Prior to disposing of the rechargeable bat-
tery, ensure that the contacts have been masked with
adhesive strips or other insulating material in order to
prevent their direct contact with other materials. Con-
tact with other metallic material in rubbish bins may
cause fire and explosion.
