Pull back the sliding cover [1a] and insert 2 AA or 2 AAA NiMH batteries with correct polarity corresponding to the symbols in the charging slots [4]. The charging process starts automati- cally and the current charging status is indicated on the LCD display [1d]. It is normal that batteries may become warm during charging. Once the batteries are fully charged, the charger automatically switches to trickle charge. The trickle charge prevents self-discharge of the batteries when left in the charger.

When all 4 bars are displayed permanent- ly, the battery is fully charged. When all 4 bars are flashing, a battery is faulty. ENVIRONMENT Do not dispose of the device in the nor- mal household waste. Please return it to your dealer, nearest recycling centre or collection point. Please also recycle all packing materials.
