SAFETY WARNINGS FOR 

BATTERY PACK 

a)  Do not dismantle, open or shred cells 

or battery pack. 

b)  Do not short-circuit a battery 

pack. Do not store battery packs 

haphazardly in a box or drawer where 

they may short-circuit each other 

or be short-circuited by conductive 

materials. 

When battery pack is not 

in use, keep it away from other metal 
objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, 
screws or other small metal objects, that 
can make a connection from one terminal 
to another. Shorting the battery terminals 
together may cause burns or a fire.

c)  Do not expose battery pack to heat or 

fire. Avoid storage in direct sunlight.

d)  Do not subject battery pack to 

mechanical shock.

e)  In the event of battery leaking, do not 

allow the liquid to come into contact 

with the skin or eyes. If contact has 

been made, wash the affected area 

with copious amounts of water and 

seek medical advice.

if a cell or battery pack has been 

swallowed.

g)  Keep battery pack clean and dry.

keep battery packs of different 

electrochemical systems separate 

from each other.

n)  Recharge only with the charger 

specified by WORX. Do not use any 

charger other than that specifically 

provided for use with the equipment. 

A charger that is suitable for one type of 
battery pack may create a risk of fire when 
used with another battery pack.
