Safety instructions for the battery and charger
Use only the battery and charger supplied with this tool.
Connect the charger only to a mains power socket with a voltage of 230V.
Protect the battery and charger from moisture. Do not use the device in an outdoor environment.
Disconnect the charger from the mains power socket when the charger is not being used, before cleaning the
charger or before performing repairs on it.
Take special care of the battery. Prevent the battery from falling on to a hard surface and do not expose the
battery to the effects of pressure or other excessive mechanical stress. Keep the battery at a safe distance
from excessive heat or cold.
Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the battery or the charger. If any part is damaged, have it repaired by
a qualifi ed technician or send it for repair to an authorised service centre or the vendor.
Charge the battery only when the ambient air temperature is between 10°C and 40°C. A charged battery
may be used to power tools in operating conditions at a temperature between 0°C and 50°C. If the battery is
not being used store it in a dry place at a temperature between 10°C and 30°C.
IMPORTANT! DANGER! Never short circuit the battery contacts and do not expose the battery to moisture.
Do not store the battery together with metal items and parts, which could cause a short circuit of the battery
contacts. The battery could overheat, catch on fi re or explode.
If any person comes into contact with the electrolyte or another liquid or substance found in the battery, they
must immediately wash this substance away with large amounts of water. If these substances come into
contact with eyes, fl ush the eyes out with large amounts of water and immediately seek medical treatment.
Do not throw rechargeable batteries into a fi re or into water. Otherwise an explosion could occur. A
rechargeable battery should not be thrown out with ordinary household waste, regardless of the fact whether
it has or has not been used. In accordance with valid regulations you should take the battery to a collection
point or put it into the container labelled "Used Batteries" in our store.
Only charge the battery in a charger designated by the manufacturer. A charger appropriate for one type of
battery creates a fi re hazard when used with another type of battery.
Only use the electric power tool with a battery intended to be used in it. The use of different batteries may lead
to a risk of injury or a fi re hazard.
If you are not using the battery, store it away from metal items, such as paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small items, which could lead to the short circuit of the battery contacts. Short circuiting the battery
contacts may cause burns or a fire.
