Environment
• Do not spill any liquids on the charger and do not drop any objects through the ventilation slots in
the charger. This may cause short circuits and contaminate the charging contacts.
• Never use the charger to charge dry batteries. The charger will detect dry batteries and automat-
ically deactivate the charging function.
• The charger may be used in dry rooms only.
• The charger should be opened, serviced, and repaired by authorized personnel only. The charger
contains no user-serviceable parts.
• Place the charger at least 1 inch away from walls or other equipment to ensure adequate heat dis-
sipation from the charger. If the charger overheats, the charging cycle will be stopped immediately.
•. Before connecting the charger to power, check that the AC mains voltage stated on the included
power supply is identical to the AC mains voltage available where you will use the charger.
• Do not operate the charger with any power supply other than the included local AC adapter with
an output voltage of 12 VDC. Using a power supply with an AC output and/or a different output volt-
age may cause serious damage to the charger.
• If you will not use the charger for a long period of time, disconnect the charger from power. To pre-
vent unwanted discharging, be sure to remove the transmitter(s) from the charger every time you
disconnect the charger from power.
• If any solid object or liquid penetrates into the charger, shut down the sound system immediately.
Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet immediately and have the equipment checked
by AKG service personnel.
• Do not place the charger near heat sources such as radiators, heating ducts, or amplifiers, etc. and
do not expose it to direct sunlight, excessive dust, moisture, rain, mechanical vibrations, or shock.
• Clean the charger with a moistened (not wet) cloth only. Be sure to disconnect the power supply
from the power outlet before cleaning the charger! Never use acidic or scouring cleaners or clean-
ing agents containing alcohol or solvents since these may damage the enamel and plastic parts.
• Use the charger for the applications described in this manual only. AKG cannot accept any liabil-
ity for damages resulting from improper handling or misuse.
• The charger will draw a low current even when the charging mode is off. To save energy, discon-
nect the charger from power if you will not use the charger for a long period of time. To prevent
unwanted discharging, be sure to remove the transmitter(s) from the charger every time you dis-
connect the charger from power.
• Be sure to dispose of used batteries as required by local waste disposal rules. Never throw bat-
teries into a fire (risk of explosion) or garbage can.
• The packaging of the charger is recyclable. Dispose of the packaging in an appropriate container
provided by the local waste collection/recycling entity and observe all local legislation relating to
waste disposal and recycling.
• When scrapping the charger, remove the batteries, separate the case, circuit boards, and cables,
and dispose of all components in accordance with local waste disposal rules.
