2 Safety warnings for Li-ion
battery packs
WARNING! Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illus­
trations and specifications pro­
vided with this power tool. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or seri­
ous injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
Cells in lithium-ion battery packs are
sealed so as to be gas-tight and are
non-hazardous provided they are used
and handled in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
– Handle discharged batteries with
care. Battery packs represent a safe­
ty hazard as they can cause a very
high short circuit current. Even if Li-
ion battery packs appear to be dis­
charged, they are in fact never fully
discharged.
– Make sure that the battery pack is
not subjected to physical blows or
impacts. Impacts and penetrating ob­
jects may damage the batteries. This
may lead to leakages, the generation
of heat or smoke, or cause the battery
pack to ignite or explode.
