[. . . ] The charger automatically disconnects itself from the mains power once the batteries are fully charged > To start the charging process, press the START button for approx. (only when operated with AC power) > The charging condition of cells is not important before charging, as each cell is charged individually > Microprocessor controlled charging and monitoring of the charging status > Microprocessor controlled and individual supervision of each cell > Automatic charging current adjustment > Reverse polarity protection > Multiple over charging protection systems including: -V detection, 0V detection and safety timer > Trickle charging > Faulty cell detection / accidental Alkaline insertion detection > Clear LED indicator per charging slot shows the individual rechargeable battery status > Switch-mode power supply (100-240V AC / 50-60Hz) for worldwide use > 12V car adapter included for use inside a car OPERatION (see diagram) Using the charger in a mains power outlet: Insert the relevant input plug included [1] (depending on the country version). There are 4 different mains plugs A, B, C or D available, that connect to the primary contacts [2] by pushing the plug to the stop position [3]. To release the input plug, please push the release button [4] (with a pen for example) and move the plug backwards. Please make sure that the power of the cigarette lighter socket is switched on. If the charger operates on AC power, press the START button for about 2 seconds to start the charging process. If the charger operates in the vehicle, the charging process starts automatically after inserting a rechargeable battery. the charge state of each cell will be indicated by one LED (see LED INDICATORS) per charging slot. The cells do not have to be inserted simultaneously as the charging processes are independent from each other. After charging is complete, the charger switches automatically to trickle charge. When the charger operates via the mains (100-240V AC), the trickle charge for all inserted cells will automatically switch off after one hour from when the last cell was fully charged. The charger automatically disconnects itself from the mains power by means of the intelligent Zero Watt Technology. It does not consume any electric power even if it remains in the power socket. When the charger operates in the vehicle (12V DC), there is no need for automatic cut off. [. . . ] ANSMANN cannot accept liability for direct, indirect, accidental or other claims or consequential damages originated by not using this device as indicated by these operating instructions. This does not apply to damage caused by low-quality batteries leaking inside the charger. [. . . ]
