Battery Safety
• Charge a rechargeable battery unit using only the charger supplied by the
manufacturer. There is the danger of fire if other types of rechargeable battery
units are used.
• When they are not being used, store rechargeable battery units away from paperclips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that could cause the contacts to
be bridged. Short circuiting the contacts of a rechargeable battery unit may result in
heat damage or fire.
Fluids may leak out of rechargeable battery units if they are misused. If this
happens, avoid contact with the fluid. If contact occurs, flush the affected area
with water. Seek additional medical help if any of the fluid gets into your
eyes. Escaping battery fluid may cause skin irritation or burns.
• The battery pack supplied with your cordless tool is not charged. The battery pack has
to be charged before you use the tool for the first time.
• For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge cycles. Charge the battery pack
frequently.
• Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 15°C. The battery must be charged for
storage until the second led is lit. Charging needs to be done when the light gets down
to 1 led.
