Frequently Asked Questions - Comfort Multi ANSMANN

What types of batteries can I charge with the Ansmann Comfort Multi?

You can charge rechargeable NiMH batteries of type Micro AAA, Mignon AA, Baby C, Mono D and 9 V blocks. Batteries of different capacities can be mixed in the slots.

How do I know when charging is complete?

Each slot has a tricolor LED. When the battery is fully charged, the LED becomes green steady. The charger then automatically switches to trickle charge mode.

What should I do if the LED flashes orange?

An orange flashing indicates that the slot is on pause. This happens when the USB source does not provide enough current (less than 2.1 A). Use a USB power supply of at least 2.1 A to avoid these pauses.

Can I charge non-rechargeable batteries?

No, this charger is designed only for rechargeable NiMH batteries. Charging non-rechargeable batteries can cause overheating, leakage, or explosion.

How do I clean the charger?

Before cleaning, unplug the charger and remove the batteries. Use a soft dry or slightly damp cloth (with a little mild dish soap). Never use abrasive products or solvents.

Why does charging seem slow?

Charging speed depends on the USB source. If you use a source below 2.1 A, the charger may pause certain slots to manage power, which extends charging time. Use a USB mains adapter of at least 2.1 A for fast charging.

Is the charger compatible with lithium batteries?

No, the Ansmann Comfort Multi is specifically designed for NiMH batteries. Do not charge other chemistries like lithium-ion, as this may damage the charger and batteries.

Can I charge a single battery in the charger?

Yes, the charger works with any number of batteries, from 1 to 4 for AAA/AA/C/D sizes, plus the 9 V block. Each slot is monitored independently.

What should I do if the LED does not light up?

Check that the USB cable is properly connected to the charger and the power source. Try another USB source (e.g., mains adapter, PC). If the problem persists, the charger or cable may be defective.

Is there a risk of overcharging?

No, the charger uses an IQ Cut-off function that continuously monitors the voltage of each battery. Once fully charged, it automatically switches to pulse trickle charge mode, preventing overcharging.

Pause (*1) Flashing

(*1) If the connected USB device does not supply enough current (recommended min. 2.1A), the device will pause a charging slot. You can still charge your batteries without any problems, but the charging process takes longer due to this pause.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible cause Resolution

No LED indication - No connection toUSB power source- USB power supply defective		- Check the connection- Use a different USB power supply
Battery is not recognized	- Battery inserted with reverse polarity	- Insert the battery with the correct polarity
LED is flashing orange - Battery slot pauses, as the current of the USB power source is too low to charge all batteries at the same time		- Use USB power source with a minimum of 2.1A output current- Or accept the longer charging time

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

Disconnect the power supply to the product and remove all batteries before cleaning.
