Before Use; Maintenance And Inspection - Metabo HPT UC 18YFSL Instructions De Sécurité Et Mode D'emploi

○ Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged
immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life
will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
CAUTION:
● When the battery charger has been continuously used, the battery charger will be
heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been
completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
● If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in
a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the
pilot lamp of the charger lights for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for
0.5 seconds).
The battery will not be recharged. In such a case, let the battery cool before
charging.
● When the pilot lamp fl ickers (at 0.2-second intervals), check for and take out any
foreign objects in the charger's battery connector. If there are no foreign objects, it
is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized
Service Center.
