This charger is not intended for use by children or persons with physical,
sensory or mental limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge. This
charger can be used by children aged 8 or older and by persons who have
physical, sensory, or mental limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge
if a person responsible for their safety supervises them or has instructed
them in the safe operation of the charger and they understand the associated
dangers. Otherwise, there is a risk of operating errors and injuries.
Intended use:
- The POWER FOR ALL Battery Charger 18V is intended to charge relevant POWER FOR ALL System- Batteries and is intended for use in private houses and hobby gardens.
- The product is not intended for long-term use.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
-
Read all the safety and general instructions.
-
Failure to observe the safety and general instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
-
Store these instructions in a safe place.
-
Only use the charger if you can fully evaluate all functions and carry them out without restrictions, or if you have received corresponding instructions.
-
Supervise children during use, cleaning, and maintenance. This will ensure that children do not play with the charger.
-
Charge only lithium-ion batteries of the POWER FOR ALL system type PBA 18V with a capacity of 1.5 Ah or more (5 battery cells or more). The battery voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the charger. Do not charge any nonre-chargeable batteries.
-
Otherwise, there is a risk of fire and explosion.
-
Only use the battery charger in closed rooms and keep it away from moisture. The ingress of water into a battery charger increases the risk of electric shock.
-
Keep the charger clean.
Dirt poses a risk of electric shock. -
Always check the charger, cable, and plug before use. Stop using the charger if you discover any damage. Do not open the charger yourself, and have it repaired only by a qualified specialist using only original replacement parts.
-
Damaged chargers, cables, and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
-
Do not operate the charger on an easily ignited surface (e. g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in a flammable environment. There is a risk of fire due to the charger heating up during operation.
-
Only charge the batteries using chargers recommended by the manufacturer or by POWER FOR ALL system partners. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may pose a fire risk when used with different batteries (Battery type: PBA 18V… / compatible chargers: AL 18…).
-
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapors may also be emitted.
-
Ensure the area is well-ventilated and seek medical attention should you experience any adverse effects.
-
The vapors may irritate the respiratory system.
-
If used incorrectly or if the battery is damaged, flammable liquid may escape from the battery. Contact with this liquid should be avoided. If contact accidentally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid comes into contact with your eyes, seek additional medical attention. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
-
The battery contacts can be hot after use. Be careful of the hot contacts when removing the battery.
-
To avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord needs to be replaced, this must be done by GARDENA or by a customer service center that is authorized to repair GARDENA power tools.
Products sold in GB only:
Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved electric plug with an
internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not suitable for your
socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its
place by an authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be
disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into
a main socket elsewhere.
DANGER!

- Consult your doctor and the manufacturer of your implant before using this product.
- After using the product, disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.

The battery is not included with the product as standard. You can find the complete selection of accessories in our accessories range. Thanks to the intelligent charging process, the charge con-dition of the battery is automatically detected and then charged up with the optimal charge current depending on battery temperature and voltage. In this way, the battery is treated with care and remains permanently fully charged when it is stored in the charger.
Meaning of the indication elements:
Indication on the charger:
Practical advice:
When the charger is used continuously, or for several consecutive charge
cycles without interruption, the charger may heat up. This is, however,
harmless and does not indicate that the charger has a technical defect. A
significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery
has deteriorated and must be replaced.
MAINTENANCE
To clean the battery charger:
Make sure that the surface and the contacts of the battery and the battery
charger always are clean and dry before you connect the battery charger.
Do not use running water.
Clean the contacts and the plastic parts with a soft and dry cloth.
STORAGE
To put into storage:
The product must be stored away from children.
- Clean the battery charger (see 3. MAINTENANCE).
