Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ig-
nition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, never use any cordless product in the
presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel
debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water im

mediately.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or
received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to
explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the
battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets,
and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and
cause burns.
For best results, your battery tool should be charged in
a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but
less than 100°F. To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery
leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your
skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neu-
tralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets into your
eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes,
then seek immediate medical attention. Following this rule
will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature

or at temperatures outside of the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
