LEGAL INFO
Warranty
Limited Hardware Warranty
ATEQ warrants to the original purchaser that your ATEQ hardware product shall be free from defects in
material and workmanship for the length of time, identied on your product package and/or contained
in your user documentation, from the date of purchase. Except where prohibited by applicable law, this
warranty is non-transferable and is limited to the original buyer. This warranty gives you specic statutory
rights, and you may also have other rights that vary under local laws.
Remedies
In the event of breach of the warranty, the sole responsibility of ATEQ and your sole remedy consists, at
ATEQ’s choice, in repairing or replacing the hardware. Shipping and handling charges may apply, unless
prohibited by the applicable law. To repair or replace any hardware, ATEQ may, as it chooses, use parts
that are new, restored or already used but in good working order. Any replacement hardware product will
be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer or
for any additional period of time that may be applicable in your jurisdiction.
This warranty does not cover problems or damage resulting (a) from accidents, abuse, incorrect use or
any repair, any modication or any unauthorized disassembly; (b) from inappropriate use or maintenance,
use not in compliance with the instructions of the product or from connecting to power supply with incor-
rect voltage; or (c) from use of consumables, such as replacement batteries, not supplied by ATEQ, apart
from where such restriction is prohibited by the applicable law.
How to Obtain Warranty Support
Before submitting a warranty claim, we recommend you visit the technical support section of our website
at https://www.ateq-tpms.com/ for technical assistance. Valid warranty claims are generally processed
through the point of sale during the rst thirty (30) days after purchase. However, this period of time may
vary depending on the place of purchase. Contact ATEQ or the retailer who sold you the product to get
more details. Warranty claims that cannot be processed through the point of sale and any other product-
related questions should be addressed directly to ATEQ. The addresses and contact details of ATEQ’s
customer services are given in the documentation provided with your product, and on the internet at
https://www.ateq-tpms.com/.

DITION OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS ON THIS HARDWARE PRODUCT IS LIMITED IN DURA-
TION TO THE DURATION OF THE APPLICABLE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD FOR YOUR PROD-

Safety precautions
You must read and understand these safety precautions and warnings before using or charging your Li-Po
batteries.
Operating environment
Remember to always follow any specic regulations in force in your sector of work, and to switch off your
device when its use is prohibited, or when it may cause interference or danger.
Only use the tool in its normal operating position.
About charging
Only use the power supply provided with your VT56. The use of any other power supply may damage the
tool and/or be dangerous.
When the red LED goes off and turns green, charging is nished.
About the charger
Do not use this charger in wet environments; never touch the charger if your hands or feet are wet.
Allow sufcient space around the charger for ventilation when you use it to power or recharge the tool’s
battery. Do not cover the charger with objects liable to affect cooling. Do not use this charger inside a bag.
Connect the charger to a suitable power outlet.
Do not use the charger if it is damaged or if its power lead is damaged. Do not disassemble the charger
and do not modify any of its parts. Do not attempt to repair the charger. It does not contain any part that
can be repaired. Replace the charger if it has been damaged or exposed to excess moisture.
Do not try to use it as a power source.
Unplug it before undertaking any cleaning or care.
About the battery
CAUTION: this device contains a Li-Po battery. It can explode and release hazardous chemicals. To re-
duce any risk of re or burns, do not disassemble, crush, pierce or dispose of the battery or the tool in re
or water, and do not short-circuit or short the contacts with a metal object.
Always use the power supply approved by ATEQ and supplied with the device.
The tool must be returned to the factory for battery replacement.
Opening the tool or tampering with or breaking the seal placed on the tool will invalidate the warranty.

Pg. 16
Safety instructions for Li-Po battery use
The VT56 must be placed on a non-ammable surface during charging (ceramic tray or metal box).
Only charge the Li-Po battery WITH the specic charger provided.
If the battery begins to overheat more than 60°C (140°F), STOP CHARGING IMMEDIATELY. The battery
must NEVER exceed 60°C (140°F) during the charging process.
NEVER charge a battery pack immediately after use and while it is still hot. Let it cool down to room tem-
perature.
If you see any smoke or liquid coming out of the battery, stop charging immediately. Disconnect the bat-
tery from the charger and place the battery in an isolated area for at least 15 minutes. STOP USING THE
BATTERY, and return the device to your dealer.
Always keep a re extinguisher for electrical res within reach while charging the battery. In the unlikely
event that the Li-Po battery catches re, DO NOT use water to extinguish the re, use sand or the extin-
guisher described above.
The parts of a Li-Po battery must be neutralized out of use. The neutralization procedure must be carried
out within very strict safety parameters. You are recommended to contact a specialist in this battery
type to carry out this process. They will have the out-of-use battery collected by a specialized recycling
organization. Alternatively, contact your dealer.
Do not dispose of Li-Po batteries with household waste.
To avoid leaks or other hazards, do not store batteries above 60°C. Never leave the battery inside a car
(for example) where the temperature could be very high or in a place where the temperature might exceed
60°C. Store the battery in a dry place to avoid contact with any type of liquid. Store the battery only on a
non-ammable surface that is heat resistant and non-conductive, and away from any ammable materials
or sources.
A Li-Po battery must be stored with a minimum charge of 30%. If you store the battery completely dis-
charged, it will quickly become unusable. If it has to be stored for a long period (over 6 months), remem-
ber to recharge it regularly (to more than 30%).
If you do not follow these safety instructions, you risk causing serious damage to people or property, and
you even risk causing a re!
ATEQ accepts no responsibility in the event of damage arising as a result of non-compliance with these
safety instructions.
Since use of a Li-Po battery entails signicant re risks capable of causing serious damage to people and
property, the user agrees to accept the risks and the responsibility involved.
Since ATEQ cannot control correct use of the battery (charging, discharging, storage, etc.), it cannot be
held responsible for damage caused to people or property.
