Information about the charger and the
charging process
1.
Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the
battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger
to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating
plate. Never connect it to a different mains voltage.
2.
Protect the battery charger and its cord from damage.
Keep the charger and its cord away from heat, oil and
sharp edges. Have damaged cords repaired without delay
by a qualified technician at an authorized Snow Joe

3.
Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
grounded appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
4.
Keep the battery charger, battery pack and the cordless
tool out of the reach of children.
5.
Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other
cordless tools.
6.
During periods of heavy use, the battery pack will become
warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature
before connecting it to the charger to recharge.
7.
Do not overcharge the battery. Do not exceed the
maximum charging times. These charging times only
apply to discharged battery. Frequent insertion of a
charged or partially charged battery pack will result in
overcharging and cell damage. Do not leave the battery in
the charger for days on end.
8.
Never use or charge the battery if you suspect that it
has been more than 12 months since the last time it was
charged. There is a high probability that the battery
pack has already suffered dangerous damage
(exhaustive discharge).
9.
Charging the battery at a temperature below 41°F (5°C)
will cause chemical damage to the cells and may cause a
fire.
10.
Do not use battery that have been exposed to heat during
the charging process, as the battery cells may have
suffered dangerous damage.
11.
Do not use batteries that have suffered curvature or
deformation during the charging process or those that
exhibit other atypical symptoms (gassing, hissing,
cracking, etc.).
12.
Never fully discharge the battery pack (maximum
recommended depth of discharge is 80%). A complete
discharge of the battery pack will lead to premature aging
of the battery cells.
Protection from environmental influences
1.
Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles.
2.
Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from
moisture and rain. Moisture and rain can cause dangerous
cell damage.
3.
Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near
vapors and flammable liquids.
4.
Use the battery charger and cordless tools only in dry
conditions and at an ambient temperature of 41ºF – 105°F
(5°C – 40.5°C).
5.
Do not keep the battery charger in places where the
temperature is liable to reach over 105°F (40.5°C). In
particular, do not leave the battery charger in a car that is
parked in the sunshine.
6.
Protect the battery from overheating. Overloads,
overcharging and exposure to direct sunlight will result
in overheating and cell damage. Never charge or work
with battery that have been overheated – replace it
immediately, if possible.
7.
Store the charger and your cordless tool only in dry
locations with an ambient temperature of 41ºF – 105°F
(5°C – 40.5°C). Store your lithium-ion battery pack in a
cool, dry place at a temperature of 77°F (25°C). Protect
the battery pack, charger and cordless tool from humidity
and direct sunlight. Only place fully charged battery in
storage (charged to at least 40%).
8.
Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack from freezing. Battery
pack that was stored below 32°F (0°C) for more than 60
minutes must be discarded.
9.
When handling batteries, be wary of electrostatic
charge. Electrostatic discharges can damage the
electronic protection system and the battery cells. Avoid
electrostatic charging and never touch the battery poles.
