IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Be sure to observe the following important precautions whenever using the charger and adapter. Never try to open the case of the charger or attempt your own repairs. Highvoltage internal components present the risk of electric shock when exposed. Keep the charger and adapter away from water and other liquids. Never let them get wet. Moisture can cause fire and electric shock.
AC ADAPTER PRECAUTIONS Never use an electrical outlet whose voltage is outside the rating marked on the AC adapter. Doing so can cause fire or electic shock. Use only the supplied AC adapter or DC car cord (optional) for the charger. Do not allow the AC adapter power cord to be cut or damaged, and do not place heavy objects on it. A damaged AC adapter cord can cause fire or electric shock. Never try to modify the AC adapter power cord, or subject it to severe bending, twisting, or pulling.
This product is for indoor use only. Do not expose the charger to rain or snow. To reduce the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord, disconnect by pulling the plug, not the cord. Make sure the cord is located properly so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or subjected to damage. To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting cleaning, or when not in use. Do not use solvents to clean the unit.
with the charger. Do not charge any other kind of batteries, as they may burst and cause personal injury and damage. Always make sure that the plus (+) and minus (-) terminals of the batteries are facing correctly, corresponding to the markings on the charger itself. Improper loading of batteries creates the danger of personal injury or damaging objects nearby. Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them by burning. Doing so can cause an explosion.
ONE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY This Watson product is warranted to the original purchaser to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal consumer use for a period of one (1) year from the original purchase date or thirty (30) days after replacement, whichever occurs later.
