Usage Features:

The device is classified as a Class II protection device, offering protection against electric shock from both direct and indirect contact through additional isolation, eliminating the need for a protective earth connection. It is intended for domestic, indoor use only.

Safety Precautions:

The product heats up during operation; avoid placing it in restricted ventilation areas or on soft surfaces like pillows or blankets to prevent burns or overheating.
Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Avoid touching electrical outlets, wires, and electronic circuits directly.
Keep the product and packaging out of reach of children and animals, as packaging foil can pose a choking hazard.
Avoid mechanical stress such as strong shocks, impacts, dropping, or crushing.
Do not operate the product under adverse conditions, including direct sunlight, extreme temperatures (high or very low), strong vibrations, high humidity, or in environments with gases, dusts, or flammable/aggressive liquids.
If the product is damaged, malfunctions, or has been stored under unfavorable conditions, discontinue use immediately for safety.
Do not touch the product or power cord with moist or wet hands.
Short-circuiting the current connection is prohibited.
Ensure the power cord is not crushed, bent, twisted, rubbed against sharp edges, or mechanically loaded. Keep it away from heat sources.
Lay power cords to prevent tripping hazards.
Do not modify the power cord, as this can lead to damage, threats to life, health, and property.
Only charge AA/AAA batteries; charging other types can cause explosion, electric shock, and personal injury.
Cells must be charged in pairs.
Before connecting, verify that the charger's specified voltage matches the household socket voltage.
Connect the charger to electricity using the provided IEC C7 plug to the IEC C8 connector on the charger, then to a grounded electrical outlet.
Disconnect the mains plug from the power socket when the product is not in use for extended periods.
When disconnecting the power cord, pull only on the plug part, not the cord itself.
For any doubts regarding operation, safety, or connection, contact the manufacturer or a qualified specialist. All maintenance, adjustment, and repair work should be performed by a qualified professional.

Troubleshooting (Common Problems):

Cell not charging (no mains voltage): Check charger connection to mains socket and mains fuses.
Charger overloaded: Disconnect from power, check current parameters.
Incorrect cell placement: Place the cell according to polarity markings.
Suspected product defect: Stop use and contact the seller.

Preparing for Use:

Connect the charger to an electrical outlet using the provided power cord.
Place the cells in the battery charger in pairs.
Ensure cells are correctly placed.
LED diodes indicate charging status: bright red for charging, pale red for charged.
After charging, disconnect the charger from the mains socket, then remove the cells.
