About the Battery
CAUTION: This unit contains an internal Lithium-
Polymer battery. The battery can burst or explode,
releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk
of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, pierce
or dispose of the battery or the instrument in fire
or water, do not short circuit or short the contacts
with a metal object.
Use a specified charger approved by
HUF
and
supplied with the device.
The tool must be returned to the factory for battery
replacement.
Opening the tool or tampering with the seal
placed on the tool, if broken, will void the
warranty.
Safety for Lithium-Polymer battery use
NEVER
leave the battery unattended during the
charging process. The device must imperatively
be placed on a non-flammable surface during
charging (ceramic platter or metal box).
Charge the Lithium-Polymer battery
ONLY
with
the charger provided.
NEVER
use a Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) type
battery charger to charge a Lithium-Polymer battery.
If the battery begins to overheat more than
60°C
(140°F),
STOP CHARGING IMMEDIATELY
. The
battery should
NEVER
exceed
60°C
(140°F)
during the charging process.
NEVER
charge the battery immediately after use
and while still hot. Leave it to cool down to
ambient temperature.
If you see any smoke or liquid coming from the
battery, stop the charge immediately. Disconnect
the charger and place the tool in an isolated area
for at least 15 minutes.
DO NOT USE THE
BATTERY AGAIN.
Return the device to your
retailer.
Keep a fire extinguisher for electrical fires handy
while charging the battery. In the unlikely event
that the Lithium-Polymer battery catches fire,
DO
NOT
use water to extinguish the fire. Take some
sand or use a fire extinguisher as described
above.
The Lithium-Polymer battery elements must be
neutralized to be made unusable. The
neutralization process must be performed under
strict safety conditions. It is recommended that
you return the tool to us. We will extract the
battery and give it to a specialized recycler.
Do not dispose of Lithium-Polymer batteries
with your general waste.
The Lithium-Polymer battery is not suitable for
children under 14 years. Keep all Lithium-Polymer
batteries out of the reach of children
To prevent leakage or other hazards, do not store
batteries above
60°C
(140°F). Never leave the
battery inside a car (for example) where the
temperature could be very high or in a place
where temperatures could exceed
60°C
(140°F).
Store the battery in a dry place to avoid contact
with liquid, whatever the type. Only store the
battery on a non-flammable, heat resistant, non-
conductive surface and away from all flammable
materials or sources. Always store the battery out
of the reach of children.
A Lithium-Polymer battery should be stored with a
minimum charge of 30%. If you store it completely
discharged, it will quickly become unusable.
Failure to follow these safety precautions may
cause serious personal injury and damage to
property. You may even cause a fire!
The
HUF
Company disclaims any responsibility
for damage sustained in the event of non
compliance with these safety instructions.
Using a Lithium-Polymer battery has a high risk of
fire and can cause serious damage to property
and persons. The user agrees to accept the risk
and responsibility.
The
HUF
Company is not able to monitor the
proper use of the battery with each customer
(charge, discharge, storage etc.). It cannot be
held responsible for any damage to persons or
property.
