specied by the manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk
of re when used with another battery pack.
2. Use the product only with specically designated
battery pack. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and re.
3. 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 re.
4. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery pack; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally see medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
5. Do not use battery pack that is damaged or
modied. Damaged or modied batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in re, explosion or
risk of injury.
6. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or
excessive temperature. Continuous intense sunlight,
re or other heat sources may cause an increased
danger of explosion.

in air temperature below 5°C or above 40°C. This is
important as it can prevent serious damage to the
battery.
11. Remove the battery pack from the product when
not in use.
