For your safety.
Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for futur-
ereference.
Do not use this battery charger
before you have thoroughly read and
completely understood this Instruc-
tion Manual. The documents mentioned
should be kept for later use and enclosed
with the battery charger, should it be passed
on or sold.
Please also observe the relevant national
industrial safety regulations.
Special safety instructions.
This charger can be used by children
aged from 8 years and above and
persons with reduced physical, sen-
sory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if they
have been given supervision or
instruction concerning the safe use
of the charger and understand the
hazards involved. Children may not
play with the charger. Cleaning and
users maintenance may not be per-
formed by children without supervi-
sion.
Supervise children during use, clean-
ing and maintenance. This will
ensure that children do not play with
the charger.
Only charge FEIN AMPShare Li-ion
batteries or those of AMPShare part-
ners with a capacity of 2.0 Ah or
more. The battery voltage must
match the battery charging voltage
of the charger. Do not charge non-
rechargeable batteries. Otherwise
there is danger of fire and explosion.
Keep the charger away from rain or mois-
ture. The penetration of water into an elec-
trical device increases the risk of an electric
shock.
Keep the battery charger clean. Contamina-
tion can lead to danger of an electric shock.
Before each use, check the battery charger,
cable and plug. If damage is detected, do not
use the battery charger. Never open the bat-
tery charger yourself, and have repairs car-
ried out only by FEIN or an authorized FEIN
service agent. Damaged battery chargers,
cables and plugs increase the risk of an elec-
tric shock.
Do not operate the battery charger on easily
inflammable surfaces or in combustible
environments. The heating of the battery
charger during the charging process can
pose a fire hazard.
Do not cover off the ventilation slots of the
battery charger. Otherwise, the battery
charger can overheat and no longer operate
properly.
Only charge intact original FEIN
AMPShare batteries or batteries from the
AMPShare partners intended for your char-
ger. When charging incorrect, damaged,
repaired or reconditioned batteries, imita-
tions or other brands, there is danger of fire
and/or explosion.
Vapors can escape in case of damage and
improper use of the battery. Provide for
fresh air and seek medical attention in case
of complaints. The vapors can irritate the
respiratory system.
Provide for sufficient ventilation during
operation. Do not operate the battery char-
ger in enclosed cabinets or in close vicinity
to heat sources. Ambient temperatures in
excess of +45 °C can lead to malfunctions.
Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.
Otherwise there is danger of fire and explo-
sion.
WARNING
4en
Remove the battery from the charger and
pull the mains plug when not using for
extended periods. Saving energy helps to
save the environment.
When cleaning the battery charger, pull the
mains plug out of the socket. There is dan-
ger of electric shock.
Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or
signs onto the battery charger. If the insula-
tion is damaged, protection against an elec-
tric shock will be ineffective.
Charge the battery at temperatures above
+32 °F (0 °C) and below +113 °F (+45 °C).
Store the power tool and battery at a loca-
tion where the temperature does not exceed
+120 °F (+49 °C). This is important to avoid
severe damage to the battery cells.
Never immerse the battery, power tool or
charger in liquids of any kind or allow liquid
to enter. Corrosive or conductive liquids
(e.g. sea water, industrial chemicals or prod-
ucts containing bleach, etc.) may cause a
short circuit, resulting in fire, personal injury
and property damage.
Under extreme conditions of use or temper-
ature, the battery may leak. Avoid contact
with skin and eyes. The battery liquid is
corrosive and can cause tissue burns. If the
liquid comes into contact with the skin,
wash it off immediately with soap and water.
If the liquid gets into your eyes, flush them
with water for at least 10 minutes and seek
medical attention.
Make sure the cable is positioned in such a
manner that it cannot be stepped on, tripped
over, or otherwise damaged or strained. A
damaged plug and cable may cause an elec-
tric shock or fire.
Disconnect the charger by pulling the plug
and not the cable. Do not operate the char-
ger with a damaged cable or plug; replace
immediately. A damaged plug and cable may
cause an electric shock or fire.
Do not insert the battery into the charger if
the battery housing is damaged. Using a
damaged battery may result in electric shock
or fire.
Do not disassemble or operate the charger if
it has received a heavy blow, has been
dropped, or otherwise damaged. Incorrect
assembly or damage may result in electric
shock or fire.
Do not use accessories that are not recom-
mended by Fein or sold by Fein. The use of
accessories that are not recommended may
result in electric shock or fire.
Replace the battery when a significant
decrease in operating time per charge is
observed. The battery may be close to the
end of its service life.
When the battery is not in the
power tool or charger, keep it
away from metal objects. For example, do
not place the battery in a tool box or bag
with nails, screws, wrenches, etc. in order to
protect the terminals from short circuiting.
This can lead to fires or injuries.
Do not place the battery into a fire or expose
it to high heat. The battery can explode.
Do not attempt to disassem-
ble the battery or remove pro-
truding parts from the battery terminals.
This can lead to fires or injuries. Protect
exposed terminals with thick insulating tape
prior to disposal in order to avoid short cir-
cuits.

Extension cable.
If the use of an extension
cable is required, its length
and conductor cross-section must be ade-
quate for the applicational case, in order to
prevent a voltage drop in the extension
cable, power loss and overheating of the
battery charger. Otherwise, the extension
cable and battery charger are liable to elec-
trical danger, and the working efficiency will
be impaired.
