●Do not disassemble or modify the charger.
●If available battery power is significantly reduced, battery is reaching end of lifespan. Please purchase a new battery.

●When charging:
•Remove any dirt on connectors of charger and battery with dry cloth.
•Keep at least 1 m (3.28 feet) away from AM radio (may cause radio interference).
•Noises may be emitted from inside of charger, but this is not a fault.
•Remove charger from wall socket after charging (up to 0.1 W consumed if left in place).
●Do not use a damaged or dented battery (especially connectors), e.g. by dropping (can cause faults).
