CAUTIONS

Battery Packs

The supplied battery pack is
a lithium-ion battery. Before
using the supplied battery
pack or an optional battery
pack, be sure to read the
following cautions:
1. To avoid hazards . . .

.... do not burn.
.... do not short-circuit the terminals.
.... do not modify or disassemble.
.... do not expose the battery to temperatures

exceeding 60

°

C, as this may cause the battery

to overheat, explode or catch fire.

.... use only specified chargers.

2. To prevent damage and prolong service life . . .

.... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
.... charge in an environment where temperatures

are within the tolerances shown in the chart
below. This is a chemical reaction type
battery—cooler temperatures impede chemical
reaction, while warmer temperatures can
prevent complete charging.

.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure

to high temperatures will increase natural
discharge and shorten service life.

.... fully charge and then fully discharge the

battery every 6 months when storing the
battery pack over a long period time.

.... remove from charger or powered unit when

not in use, as some machines use current even
when switched off.

NOTES:

It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after
charging, or after use.
