Safety Instructions
NOTE: The battery pack(s) and the charger are not
included and must be purchased separately. Battery and
charger options available at snowjoe.com.
The iON100V-21SB-CT-RM is compatible with the following
batteries (models iON100V-2.5AMP and iON100V-5AMP) and
charger (model iON100V-RCH). See page 20 for additional
information.
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT!
Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor
care of high-performance batteries are the main factors
responsible for personal and/or product damage.

WARNING!
Use only approved replacement batteries;
other batteries may damage the cordless snow blower and
cause it to malfunction, which can lead to serious personal
injury.
m
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of injury, charge the
iON100V-2.5AMP battery pack or the iON100V-5AMP battery
pack only in their compatible charger (model iON100V-RCH,
sold separately). Other types of chargers present risk of fire,
personal injury, and damage. Do not wire a battery pack to a
power supply plug or car cigarette lighter. Such misuse will
permanently disable or damage the battery pack.
• Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the
battery pack(s) in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use the battery pack(s) or charger in the presence of
explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable
materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting
or removing the battery pack(s), which could lead to a fire.
• Charge in a well-ventilated area – Do not block the
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
NOTE: The safe temperature range for the batteries is -4°F
(-20°C) to 113°F (45°C). Do not charge the battery pack(s)
outside in freezing weather; charge it at room temperature.
• Maintain charger cord – When unplugging the charger,
pull the plug, not the cord, from the receptacle to reduce
the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Never
carry the charger by its cord or yank it by the cord to
disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away
from heat, oil and sharp edges. Make sure the cord will not
be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage or
stress when the charger is in use. Do not use the charger
with a damaged cord or plug. Replace a damaged charger
immediately.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary – Using the wrong, damaged or improperly
wired extension cord poses a risk of fire and electric shock.
If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a
properly wired 18 gauge or larger extension cord with the
female plug matching the male plug on the charger. Make
sure that the extension cord is in good electrical condition.
• Charger iON100V-RCH is rated for 100 – 120 volt AC
only – The charger must be plugged into an appropriate
receptacle.
• Use only recommended attachments – Use of an
attachment not recommended or sold by the battery
charger or battery pack manufacturer may result in risk of
fire, electric shock or personal injury.
• Unplug charger when not in use – Make sure to remove
battery pack from unplugged chargers.

WARNING!
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
always unplug the charger before performing any cleaning
or maintenance. Do not allow water to flow into the charger.
Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce shock
hazards.
• Do not burn or incinerate the battery pack(s) –
Battery packs may explode, causing personal injury or
damage. Toxic fumes and materials are created when
battery packs are burned.
• Do not crush, drop or damage the battery pack(s) –

sustained a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or have
been damaged in any way (i.e. pierced with a nail, hit with a
hammer, stepped on, etc.).

a serious risk of electric shock, fire or exposure to toxic
battery chemicals. If the battery pack(s) or charger are
