Symbols on the charger
Read all of this manual carefully before using the 
#
appliance.
This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth wire is required. Always check that the power supply
wcorresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. Short circuit proof safety isolating transformer. The mains supply is electrically separated from the
x transformer output.
The charger automatically shuts off if the ambient temperature becomes too high. As a consequence the charger will be inoperable. The charging base must be disconnected from the mains supply and
$taken to an authorised service centre for repair. The charging base is intended for indoor use only.
