Do not operate charger with damaged cords or plugs

 — have them 

replaced immediately.

Disconnect the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. 
This will reduce the risk of electric shock.

 Removing the battery pack will 

not reduce this risk. 

Important Safety Instructions for the Battery Pack

Do not incinerate the battery 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.

Do not charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the 
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.

 Inserting or removing the 

battery from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.

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.

Charge the battery packs only in the charger which accompanied your 
product.

 

DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids. 

This may cause 

premature cell failure.

Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the 
temperature may reach or exceed 40°C (such as outside sheds or metal 
buildings in summer).

When batteries are not in tool or charger, keep them away from metal 
objects.

DO NOT put batteries into fire or expose to high heat. 

They may explode.
