The battery charger gets
hot during use. The
charger’s heat can build
up to unsafe levels and
create a fire hazard if it does not
receive adequate ventilation, due to
an electrical fault, or if it is used in a
hot environment.
Do not place the charger on a flam
-
mable surface. Do not obstruct any
vents on the charger.
especially
avoid placing the charger on car-
pets and rugs; they are not only
flammable, but they also obstruct
vents under the charger.
Place the charger on a stable, solid,
nonflammable surface (such as a
stable metal workbench or concrete
floor) at least 1 foot away from all
flammable objects, such as drapes or
