Safety instructions for Li-ion batteries
•
Do not open the battery. There is a risk of a short-circuit.
• Protect the battery from heat, e.g. from continuous exposure to sunlight, fire, water
and humidity. There is a risk of explosion.
•
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted.
Ventilate the area and seek medical help in the case of inhalation. The vapours
can irritate the respiratory system.
•
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush the affected area with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, seek medical help in addition. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
• Use only original batteries with the voltage indicated on the rating plate of your
electric power tool. If other batteries are used, e.g. imitations, reconditioned
batteries or third-party products, there is a risk of injuries as well as damage caused
by exploding batteries.
•
The battery voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the battery
charger to avoid the risk of fire and explosion.
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
• Pointed objects, such as nails or screw-drivers or external forces may damage the
battery. This may cause an internal short-circuit and the battery to burn, smoke,
explode or overheat.
