8.2.2Charging the batteries
•Make sure you read and understand the battery charger's User's Manual, if supplied, as well as the safety notes on the front and rear panels of the charger!
WARNING:
Danger of explosion and destruction of batteries if the wrong battery charger is used!
•Only ever use the battery charger supplied with your vehicle, or a charger that has been approved by Invacare®!
Danger of electric shock and damage to the battery charger if it is allowed to get wet!
•Protect the battery charger from water!
•Always charge in a dry environment!
Danger of short circuit and electric shock if the battery charger has been damaged!
•Do not use the battery charger if it has been dropped or damaged!
Danger of fire and electric shock if a damaged extension cable is used!
•Only ever use an extension cable if it is absolutely necessary! In case you must use one, make sure it is in good condition!
Note
The Invacare® Auriga/Auriga10 can be charged using an internal or an external charger. Although it is not inherently dangerous to use both simultaneously, we recommend using only one at a time.
