Careful handling and use of battery
devices
•
Charge the batteries only in chargers
that are recommended by the manuf-
acturer. Risk of fire if a charger that is
suitable for a specific type of battery is
used with other batteries.
•
In the power tools, use only the bat-
teries designed for the purpose. The
use of other batteries may result in
injuries and risk of fire.
•
Keep the unused battery away from
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
and other small metal objects, which
could cause bridging of the contacts.
A short circuit between the battery
contacts may cause burns or fire.
•
If used incorrectly, liquid may leak
from the battery. Avoid contact with
this. In the event of accidental contact,
rinse off with water. If the liquid gets
into eyes, seek medical assistance.
Leaking battery fluid may cause skin
irritations or burns.
Special safety directions for battery-
operated tools
•
Ensure that the device is switched off
before inserting the battery. Inserting
a battery into a power tool that is swit-
ched on may result in accidents.
•
Recharge the batteries indoors only
because the battery charger is desi-
gned for indoor use only. Risk of elec-
tric shock.
•
To reduce the electric shock hazard,
unplug the battery charger from the
mains before cleaning the charger.
•
Do not subject the battery to strong
sunlight over long periods and do not
leave it on a heater. Heat damages
the battery and there is a risk of explo-
sion.
•
Allow a hot battery to cool before
charging.
•
Do not open up the battery and avoid
mechanical damage to the battery.
Risk of short circuit and fumes may be
emitted that irritate the respiratory tract.
Ensure fresh air and seek medical assi-
stance in the event of discomfort.
•
Do not use non-rechargeable batte-
ries. This could damage the appliance.
