These data are then used exclusively to be able to assemble the best possible
battery packs. Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be exer-
cised when handling batteries. The following points must be obeyed at all times
to ensure safe use.
Safe use can only be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
can cause cell damage.
Important: Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor care are the main causes
of the damage caused by high performance batteries.
Information about the battery
1. The battery pack supplied with your cordless tool is not charged. The battery
pack has to be charged before you use the tool for the first time.
2. For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge cycles. Charge the bat-
tery pack frequently.
3. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 15°C and charged to at least
40%.
4. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural ageing process. The battery pack
must be replaced at the latest when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity
when new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no longer capable of
meeting the high power requirements and therefore pose a safety risk.
5. Do not throw battery packs into an open fire. There is a risk of explosion!
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to fire.
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries.
Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery cells. The most common cause
of exhaustive discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of partly discharged bat-
teries. Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery falls noticeably
or the electronic protection system triggers. Place the battery pack in storage
only after it has been fully charged.
8. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads.
Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery
housing without this overheating actually being apparent externally.
9. Avoid damage and shocks.
Replace batteries which have been dropped from a height of more than one
meter or which have been exposed to violent shocks without delay, even if the
housing of the battery pack appears to be undamaged. The battery cells inside
the battery may have suffered serious damage. In this respect, please also
read the waste disposal information.
10. If the battery pack suffers overloading and overheating, the integrated protec-
tive cut-off will switch off the equipment for safety reasons. Important. Do not
press the ON/OFF switch any more if the protective cut-off has actuated. This
