CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of injury, charge the
24V iON+ lithium-ion battery pack only in its designated
24V iON+ lithium-ion charger. Other types of chargers present
risk of fire, personal injury and damage. Do not wire a battery
pack to a power supply plug or car cigarette lighter. Such
misuse will permanently disable or damage the battery pack.
• Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the
battery pack in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use the battery pack or charger in the presence of
explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable
materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting
or removing the battery pack, which could lead to a fire.
• Charge in a well-ventilated area – Do not block the
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
NOTE: The safe temperature range for the battery is
41°F – 105ºF (5°C – 40.5°C). Do not charge the battery
outside in freezing weather; charge it at room temperature.
• Maintain charger cord – When unplugging the charger,
pull the plug, not the cord, from the receptacle to reduce
the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord.
Never carry the charger by its cord or yank it by the cord
to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away
from heat, oil and sharp edges. Make sure the cord will not
be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage or
stress when the charger is in use. Do not use the charger
with a damaged cord or plug. Replace a damaged charger
immediately.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary – Using the wrong, damaged or improperly
wired extension cord poses a risk of fire and electric shock.
If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a
properly wired 16 gauge or larger extension cord with the
female plug matching the male plug on the charger. Make
sure that the extension cord is in good electrical condition.
