To display the amount of charger left in the battery, press the charge level indicator
button.
Charger status
The charger is a base on which the battery is mounted. It is compatible only with the
battery model shown above. It is connected by means of a plug with a power cable to an
electrical network. It has two led lights that indicate the state of the battery charge.
The charger has an intelligent electronic system that protects the battery from
overloads, stopping the charging process when the battery has reached its maximum
charge. It is also disconnected when the battery is very hot or in poor working condition.

Battery
• The extreme increase in temperature of a lithium battery can cause it to catch fire or
even explode, causing serious damage to nearby people or the environment. The causes
of this increase in temperature can be the following:
- Incineration of the battery.
- Direct and prolonged exposure to the sun (in days of high temperature) or to a focus of
fire.
- Electrical overconsumption of the tool to which the battery is connected, when said
tool is being subjected to forced labor, for example a grinding wheel on demand.
- Electrical overload due to connection to a charger for longer than required.
- Electrical overload due to connection to a charger with different characteristics than
required.
- Overload due to direct contact between the positive and negative terminals with a
conductive metallic element.
• The increase in temperature can also cause the leakage of liquids from the battery,
which could cause poisoning or irritation of the skin or eyes. To avoid this, consider not
hitting, opening or incinerating the battery. Consider also what was stated in the
previous point. In case of contact with these liquids, rinse thoroughly with water. In case
of contact with eyes or intoxication go to a medical center.
NOTE
: Our battery is built with an intelligent electronic system that protects it from
electrical and temperature overloads. Increasing security to prevent the battery from
suffering such damage. However, this can not control the actions of users who
manipulate it incorrectly, recklessly and insecurely.
• Never use a battery that is damaged, broken or with defective terminals. There is a
danger of electric shock, spillage of liquids or production of sparks that could cause a
fire. Replace it.
• Never use a charger other than the one recommended. This must be built with the
necessary elements to protect the useful life of the battery, the safety of people and the
environment.
