explosion. Never use the supplied rechargeable battery and charger with another product.
•Explosive gases are created during charging. Charge the battery in a well-ventilated area. Do not charge
the battery near heat or flammable materials.
•Contact between the positive and negative terminals may result in fire or explosion. Avoid direct contact
between the terminals. Picking up the battery by the wires or charger can cause damage to the battery
and may result in a fire. Always pick up the battery by its case or handles.
•Liquids on the battery may cause fire or electric shock. Always keep all liquids away from the battery and
keep the battery dry. Contact or exposure to battery leakage (lead acid) may cause serious injury. If
contact or exposure occurs immediately call your physician. If the chemical is on the skin or in the eyes,
flush with cool water for 15 minutes. If the chemical was swallowed, immediately give the person water or
milk. Do not give water or milk if the patient is vomiting or has a decreased level of alertness. Do not
induce vomiting.
•Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds (acid) – chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer, reproductive harm, and are toxic and corrosive. Never
open the battery.
•Tampering or modifying the electric circuit system may cause a shock, fire or explosion and permanently
damage the system. Exposed wiring and circuitry in the charger may cause electric shock. Always keep
