Charging advice:
If the charger will be disconnected from the battery during the charging process, the charge current will be interrupted mime-
daintily. In that case please disconnect the charger from the mains supply. For starting a new charging process please comply
with the relevant points.
For increasing the lifetimes of the battery please do not stop a charging process before the battery is fully charged. The
charger will automatically stop the charging process
