About the battery
CAUTION:
this
device
contains
a
Li-Po
battery. It can explode and release hazardous
chemicals. To reduce any risk of fire or burns, do
not disassemble, crush, pierce or dispose of the
battery or the tool in fire or water, and do not
short-circuit or short the contacts with a metal
object.
Always use the power supply approved by
ATEQ
and supplied with the device.
The tool must be returned to the supplier for
replacement of the battery.
Opening the tool, modifying it or removing the
security tab voids the warranty completely.
Safety instructions for Li-Po battery use
The device must imperatively be placed on a non-
flammable surface during charging (ceramic tray
or metal box).
Only charge the Li-Po battery
WITH
the specific
charger provided.
If the battery begins to overheat to more than
60°C
(140°F)
,
STOP CHARGING IMMEDIATELY
.
The battery must
NEVER
exceed
60°C
(140°F)
during the charging process.
NEVER
charge a battery pack immediately after
its use and while it is still hot. Let it cool down to
room temperature.
If you see any smoke or liquid coming out of the
battery, stop charging immediately. Disconnect
the battery from the charger and place the battery
in an isolated area for at least 15 minutes.
STOP
USING THE BATTERY
, and return the device to
your dealer.
Always keep a fire extinguisher for electrical fires
within reach while charging the battery. In the
unlikely event that the Li-Po battery catches fire,
DO NOT
use water to extinguish the fire, use
sand or the extinguisher described above.
The parts of a Li-Po battery must be neutralised
out of use. The neutralisation procedure must be
carried out within very strict safety parameters.
You are recommended to contact a specialist in
this battery type to carry out this process. They
will have the out-of-use battery collected by a
specialised recycling organisation. Alternatively,
contact your dealer.
Do not dispose of Li-Po batteries with
household waste.
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 the temperature could exceed
60°C
(140°F). Store the battery in a dry place to avoid
all contact with any kind of liquid. Store the battery
only on a non-flammable surface that is heat
resistant and non-conductive, and away from any
flammable materials or sources.
A Li-Po battery must be stored with a minimum
charge of
30%
. If you store the battery completely
discharged, it will quickly become unusable. If it
has to be stored for a long period (over 6 months),
remember to recharge it regularly (to more than
30%).
If you do not follow these safety instructions, you
risk causing serious damage to people or
property, and you even risk causing a fire!
The
ATEQ
company accepts no responsibility in
the event of damage arising as a result of non-
compliance with these safety instructions.
Since use of a Li-Po battery entails significant fire
risks capable of causing serious damage to
people and property, the user agrees to accept
the risks and the responsibility involved.
Since
ATEQ
cannot control correct use of the
battery (charging, discharging, storage, etc.), it
cannot be held responsible for damage caused to
people or property.
