•
Charge the battery packs only in
designated RHYNO chargers.
•
DO NOT
splash or immerse in water or
other liquids.
•
Do not store or use the tool and battery
pack in locations where temperatures
may reach or exceed 104°F (40°C) (such
as outside sheds or metal buildings in
summer.
For best life, store battery pack
in a cool, dry location.
NOTE: Do not store the battery packs in a
tool with the trigger switch locked on.
Never tape the trigger switch in the ON
position.
•
Do not incinerate the batter pack even if
it is severely damaged or is completely
worn out.
The battery pack can explode
in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are
created when lithium ion battery packs
are burned.
•
If battery contents come into contact
with the skin, immediately wash area
with mild soap and water.
If battery
liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over
the open eye for 15 minutes or until
irritation ceases. If medical attention is
needed the battery electrolyte is
composed of a mixture of liquid organic
carbonates and lithium salts.
•
Contents of opened battery cells may
cause respiratory irritation.
Provide
fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek
medical attention.
WARNING!
Burn hazard. Battery liquid
may be flammable if exposed to spark or
flame.
WARNING!
Fire hazard. Never attempt
to open the battery pack or any reason. If
the battery pack case is cracked or

objects can contact exposed battery
terminals.
For example, do not place the
batter pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes,
product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose
nails, screws, keys, etc.
Transporting
battery packs can possibly cause fires if the
battery terminals inadvertently come into
contact with conductive materials such as
keys, coins, hand tools, etc.
The US
Department of Transportation Hazardous
Material
Regulations
(HMR)
actually
prohibit transporting battery packs in
commerce or on airplanes in carry-on
baggage
UNLESS
they
are
properly
protected from sort circuits. So when
transporting individual battery packs, make
sure that the battery terminals are
protected and well insulated from materials
that could contact them and cause a short
circuit.
Fuel Gage Battery Packs
RHYNO Battery Packs or tools include a fuel
gage which consists of three green LED
lights that indicate the level of charge
remaining in the battery pack.
The fuel gage is an indication of
approximate levels of charge remaining in
the battery pack according to the following
indicators:
