ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR BATTERIES AND CHARGERS
Batteries
Use only batteries and chargers
applicable for this machine.
▪
Never attempt to open for any reason.
▪
Do not store in locations where the temperature may
exceed 40 °C.
▪
Charge only at ambient temperatures between 4 °C and
40 °C.
▪
Store your batteries in a cool dry place (5 °C-20 °C).
Never store batteries in discharged state.
▪
It is better for Li-ion batteries to discharge and reload
them regularly (at least 4 times a year). The ideal charge for
long-term storage of your Li-ion battery is 40% of capacity.
▪
When disposing of batteries, follow the instructions
given in the section “Protecting the environment”.
▪
Do not cause short circuits. If connection is made
between the positive (+) and negative (-) terminal directly or
via accidental contact with metallic objects, the battery is
short circuited and an intense current will flow causing heat
generation which may lead to casing rupture or fire.
▪
Do not heat. If batteries are heated to above 100 °C,
sealing and insulating separators and other polymer
components may be damaged resulting in electrolyte
leakage and/or internal short circuiting leading to heat
generation causing rupture or file. Moreover do not
dispose of the batteries in fire, explosion and/or intense
burning may result.
▪
Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur.
When you notice liquid on the
battery, proceed as follows:
Carefully wipe the liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin
contact.
In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions
below:
-
Immediately rinse with water. Neutralize with a mild
acid such as lemon juice or
vinegar.
-
In case of eye contact, rinse abundantly with clean
water for at least 10 minutes. Consult a physician.
Do not incinerate battery.
Do not expose charger and
battery to temperatures above
50 °C.
Do not expose charger and
battery to water.
Chargers
▪
Never attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries.
▪
Have defective cords replaced immediately.
▪
Do not expose to water.
▪
Do not open the charger.
▪
Do not probe the charger.
▪
The charger is intended for indoor use only.
Pictograms on charger
The following pictograms have been applied to the charger:
"Class II - The machine is double
insulated; Earthing wire is
therefore not necessary
Only use the battery charger
indoors.
Fail-safe isolating transformer.
Cut-out switch.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Check whether the voltage
indicated on the type plate of the
charger corresponds to the mains
voltage.
- LI-ION BATTERY
Advantages of Li-ion batteries :
- Li-ion batteries have a higher capacity/weight ratio (more
power for less heavy, more
compact, battery)
- No memory effect (capacity loss after several
charge/discharge cycles) like other type
batteries. (Ni-Cd, Ni-MeH ..) .
- Limited self discharge.
Charge battery pack solely
with the charger provided !
Connect the charger to a power supply. Attach battery pack
to charger : the red light goes on.
CHARGING AND INSERTION OR
REMOVAL OF BATTERY
if the battery does not fit
properly, disconnect it and
confirm that the battery pack
is the correct model for this
charger as shown on the
specification chart. Do not
charge any other battery pack
or any battery pack
that does not securely fit the
charger.
▪
Frequently monitor the charger and battery pack while
connected.
▪
Unplug the charger and disconnect it from the battery
pack when finished.
▪
Allow the battery pack to cool completely before using it.
▪
Store the charger and battery pack indoors, out of reach
of children.
