Charge only using the charger provided with the tool.
Store your batteries in a cool dry place (5°C-20°C/41°F-68°F). Never store batteries in discharged state.
It is better for Li-ion batteries to discharge and reload them regularly (at least 4 times a year). The ideal
charge for long-term storage of your Li-ion battery is 40% of capacity.
When
disposing of batteries, follow the instructions given in the section “Protecting the environment”.
Do not cause short circuits. If connection is made between the positive (+) and negative (-) terminal directly
or via accidental contact with metallic objects, the battery is short circuited and an intense current will flow
causing heat generation which may lead to casing rupture or fire.
Do not heat. If batteries are heated to above 100°C (212°F), sealing and insulating separators and other
polymer components may be damaged resulting in electrolyte leakage and/or internal short circuiting
leading to heat generation causing rupture or file. Moreover do not dispose of the batteries in fire, explosion
and/or intense burning may result.
Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur. When you notice liquid on the battery, proceed as
follows:
Carefully wipe the liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below:
•
Immediately rinse with water. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
•
In case of eye contact, rinse abundantly with clean water for at least 10 minutes. Consult a
physician.
Fire hazard! Avoid short-circuiting the contacts of a detached battery. Do not incinerate the
battery.
