Safety Instructions

Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the safety information. If you do not follow the safety instructions and information on proper handling in this manual, we assume no liability for any resulting personal injury or damage to property. Such cases will invalidate the warranty/guarantee.

a) General Information

  • The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
  • Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dangerous playing material for children.
  • Protect the appliance from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, steam and solvents.
  • Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
  • If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
    • is visibly damaged,
    • is no longer working properly,
    • has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
    • has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
  • Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can dam-age the product.
  • Consult an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection of the appliance.
  • Maintenance, modifications and repairs must only be completed by a technician or an au-thorised repair centre.
  • If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical support service or other technical personnel.

b) Power Bank

  •  Make sure that the cable is not pinched, kinked or damaged by sharp edges.
  • Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room into a warm one. The condensation that forms might destroy the product. Allow the product to reach room temperature before connecting it and putting it to use. This may take several hours.
  • Never leave the product unattended during use.
  • The housing warms up during use. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation. Do not cover the housing!
  • Do not store the product in a heated vehicle. Avoid excessive heat (max. 35 °C). Observe the information in the “Technical data” section.
  • Store the product in a cool, dry place when it is not in use.
  • Do not short-circuit the USB inputs/outputs.

c) Connected Devices

  • Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices which are connected to the product.

d) LiPo Rechargeable Battery

  • The rechargeable battery is permanently built into the product and cannot be replaced.
  • Never damage the rechargeable battery. Damaging the casing of the rechargeable battery might cause an explosion or a fire! Unlike conventional batteries/rechargeable batteries (e.g. AA or AAA type), the casing of the LiPo rechargeable battery does not consist of a thin sheet but rather a sensitive plastic film only.
  • Never short-circuit the contacts of the rechargeable battery. Do not throw the battery or the product into fire. There is a danger of fire and explosion!
  • Charge the rechargeable battery regularly, even if you do are not using the product. Due to the rechargeable battery technology being used, you do not need to discharge the recharge-able battery first.
  • Never charge the rechargeable battery of the product unattended.
  • When charging, place the product on a surface that is not heat-sensitive. It is normal that a certain amount of heat is generated during charging.
  • Do not charge the power bank and charge any external devices at the same time! This may result in damage due to overheating.
  • Do not charge the power bank using a USB 2.0/3.0 port on your computer. The current supplied by these ports may not be sufficient, and may damage the computer.

Disposal

a) Product
This symbol must appear on any electrical and electronic equipment placed on the EU market. This symbol indicates that this device should not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste at the end of its service life. Owners of WEEE (Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment) shall dispose of it separately from unsorted municipal waste. Spent batteries and accumulators, which are not enclosed by the WEEE, as well as lamps that can be removed from the WEEE in a non-destructive manner, must be removed by end users from the WEEE in a non destructive manner before it is handed over to a collection point.

Distributors of electrical and electronic equipment are legally obliged to provide free take-back of waste. Conrad provides the following return options free of charge (more details on our website):

  • in our Conrad offices
  • at the Conrad collection points
  • at the collection points of public waste management authorities or the collection points set up by manufacturers or distributors within the meaning of the ElektroG

End users are responsible for deleting personal data from the WEEE to be disposed of. It should be noted that different obligations about the return or recycling of WEEE may apply in countries outside of Germany.

b) (Rechargeable) batteries
Remove batteries/rechargeable batteries, if any, and dispose of them separately from the product. According to the Battery Directive, end users are legally obliged to return all spent batteries/rechargeable batteries; they must not be disposed of in the normal household waste. Batteries/rechargeable batteries containing hazardous substances are labelled with this symbol to indicate that disposal in household waste is forbidden. The abbreviations for heavy metals in batteries are: Cd = Cadmium, Hg = Mercury, Pb = Lead (name on (rechargeable) batteries, e.g. below the trash icon on the left). Used (rechargeable) batteries can be returned to collection points in your municipality, our stores or wherever (rechargeable) batteries are sold. You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to environmental protection. Batteries/rechargeable batteries that are disposed of should be protected against short circuit and their exposed terminals should be covered completely with insulating tape before disposal. Even empty batteries/rechargeable batteries can contain residual energy that may cause them to swell, burst, catch fire or explode in the event of a short circuit.
