Proper Care for B Charger
m
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug
the charger and remove the battery pack from the charger
before performing any maintenance task. Never disassemble
the battery pack or charger. Contact your Snow Joe
®

Sun Joe
®
dealer or the Snow Joe

customer
service center for ALL repairs.
1.
To reduce the risk of injury and damage, never immerse
your battery pack or charger in liquid or allow any liquid to
flow inside these components.
2. Clean out dust and debris from charger vents and
electrical contacts by blowing with compressed air.
3. Use only mild soap on a damp cloth to clean the battery
pack and charger, keeping away from all electrical
contacts. Certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful
to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of these
include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner,
chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household
detergents containing ammonia. Never use flammable
or combustible solvents around battery packs, battery
chargers or tools.
4.
The iON+ 24VCHRG-QC lithium-ion battery charger has
no serviceable parts.
Lubricating the Cordless Snow Shovel
This cordless snow shovel does not need lubrication. All
bearings are lubricated at the factory for the life of the product.
Storage
1.
Examine the cordless snow shovel thoroughly for worn,
loose or damaged parts. Should you need to repair or
replace a part, contact an authorized Snow Joe
®
+
Sun Joe
®
dealer or call the Snow Joe
®
+ Sun Joe
®
customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE
(1-866-766-9563) for assistance.
2. Remove the battery from the cordless snow shovel
before storing.
3. Store the cordless snow shovel indoors
in a locked, dry
place out of the reach of children to prevent unauthorized
use or damage.
B Charger Off-Season Storage
1.
Do not expose your battery pack or charger to water,
rain or allow them to get wet. This could permanently
damage the charger and the battery pack. Do not use oil
or solvents to clean or lubricate your battery pack as the
plastic casing can become brittle and crack, causing a
serious risk of injury.
2. Store the battery pack and charger at room temperature
away from moisture. Do not store in damp locations where
corrosion of terminals may occur. As with other battery
pack types, permanent capacity loss can result if the pack
is stored for long periods of time at high temperatures
(over 120ºF/49ºC).
3.
iON+ 24VBAT-XR lithium-ion battery packs maintain their
charge during storage longer than other battery pack
types. As a general practice, it is best to unplug the
battery charger and remove the battery pack when they
are not in use. Recharge the battery pack every 6 months
to 50% capacity (2 lights on) during off-season storage to
maintain optimal battery performance.
Battery C Disposal
Always dispose of your battery pack according to federal,
state, and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in your
area for recycling locations.
m
CAUTION!
Even discharged battery packs contain
some energy. Before disposing, use electrical tape to cover
the terminals to prevent the battery pack from shorting, which
could cause a fire or explosion.
m
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury or explosion,
never burn or incinerate a battery pack even if it is damaged,
dead or completely discharged. When burned, toxic fumes and
materials are emitted into the surrounding atmosphere.
1. Batteries vary according to device. Consult your manual
for specific information.
2. Install only new batteries of the same type in your product
(where applicable).
3.
Failure to insert batteries in the correct polarity, as
indicated in the battery compartment or manual, may
shorten the life of the batteries or cause batteries to leak.
4.
Do not mix old and new batteries.
5.
Do not mix Alkaline, Standard (Carbon-Zinc) or
Rechargeable (Nickel Cadmium, Nickel Metal Hydride, or
Lithium-Ion) batteries.
6.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
7. Batteries should be recycled or disposed of as per state
and local guidelines.
