Additional safety warnings
Battery safety
a) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to battery pack,
picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the
appliance with your finger on the switch or energizing
the appliance that has the switch on invites accidents.
b) Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or stor-
ing appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
c) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of bat-
tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
d) Use appliances only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk
of injury and fire.
e) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. lf contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. lf liquid contacts eyes, addi-
tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-
tery may cause irritation or burns.
f) Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged
or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
g) Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
