How long shall i charge my 4000 NiMh 7.2v battery on an Ansmann AC30 slow/fast charger

i used to have that charger.

I think it trickle charges at 100mah and fast charges at 1 or 2 amps. (forgotten)

I used to charge with the fast charge for an hour. Then when it's finished half an hour i unplugged it and plugged it back in then pressed the fasst charge again.

If your battery gets warm/hot unplug it. It is probably fully charged. (had to rescue a few packs by chucking them into the freezer :o )

EDIT>

I would switch to a better chage ASAP.

if the charger has variable charge rates, id change it to the one closest to the batteries capacity then charge it for an hour. as repeated fast charging isnt good for batteries. put it this way its like us cramming a hole weeks worth of food down ur throat at once, instead of one meal at a time :P
