5.1
Charging the rechargeable battery
CAUTION!
Danger of fire during
charging!
Due to heating of the char-
ger, there is a danger of
fire if it is placed on an in-
flammable surface and is
not adequately ventilated.
■
Always use the charger
on a non-inflammable
surface or in a non-com-
bustible environment.
■
If available: Keep the
ventilation slots free.
NOTE
Fully charge the rechargeable battery
before using it for the first time. The re-
chargeable battery can be charged in
any charge status. Interrupting charging
does not damage the rechargeable bat-
tery.
NOTE
When charging, the rechargeable bat-
tery is protected from overcharging due
to automatic detection of the charge
status and thus can remain connected to
the charging unit for some time, but not
permanently.
