not included. They must be purchased separately.

Model 24V-PP350-CT is compatible with the iON+ 24V System

batteries and chargers. See page 14 for more information.

We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery

pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,

durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have

a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially

formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.

This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the

best possible battery packs.

Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be

exercised when handling the battery. The following points must

be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only

be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling

of the battery pack can cause cell damage.

IMPORTANT! Analyses conrm that incorrect use and poor

care of high-performance batteries are the main factors

responsible for personal and/or product damage.

mWARNING! Use only approved replacement batteries;

other batteries may damage the cordless power cleaner and

cause it to malfunction, which can lead to serious personal

injury.

summer.

Information about the battery

1. For optimum battery performance, avoid low discharge

cycles by charging the battery pack frequently.

2. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 77°F

(25°C) and charged to at least 40%.

3. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural aging

process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest

when their capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when

new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no

longer capable of meeting the high power requirements

needed for the proper operation of your power cleaner,

and therefore pose a safety risk.

4. Do not throw the battery pack into an open re as this

poses a risk of explosion.

5. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to re.

6. Do not exhaustively discharge the battery. Exhaustive

discharge will damage the battery cells. The most

common cause of exhaustive discharge is lengthy storage

or non-use of partially discharged battery. Stop working as

soon as the performance of the battery fall noticeably or

the electronic protection system triggers. Place the battery

pack in storage only after it has been fully charged.

7. Protect the battery and the tool from overloads. Overloads

will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside

the battery housing even if this overheating is not

apparent externally.

8. Avoid damage and shocks. Immediately replace the

battery that has been dropped from a height of more

than one meter or has been exposed to violent shocks,

even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be

undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have

suered serious damage. In such instances, please read

the waste disposal information for proper battery disposal.

9. If the battery pack suers overloading and overheating,

the integrated protective cuto will switch o the

equipment for safety reasons.

IMPORTANT! Do not press the ON/OFF switch any more

if the protective cut-o has been activated. This may

damage the battery pack.

10. Use only original battery pack. The use of other batteries

poses a re risk and may result in injuries or an explosion.

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 dierent 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 qualied technician at an authorized Snow Joe®+

Sun Joe®dealer or call the Snow Joe®+ Sun Joe®

customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE

(1-866-766-9563).

3. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify

the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with

grounded appliances. Unmodied 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 recharging.

7. Do not overcharge the battery. Do not exceed the

maximum charging times. These charging times only apply

to discharged batteries. Frequent connection of a charged

or partially charged battery pack will result in overcharging

and cell damage. Do not leave the battery connected with

the charger for days on end.

8. Never use or charge battery if you suspect that it has

been more than 12 months since the last time they were

charged. There is a high probability that the battery pack

has already suered 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

re.

10. Do not use batteries that have been exposed to heat

during the charging process, as the battery cells may have

suered dangerous damage.

11. Do not use the battery if it suered curvature or

deformation during the charging process or 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inuences

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
