Use and Care Manual

CHARGER
Protect the battery charger and its cord from damage. Keep the charger and its cord away from heat, oil and sharp
edges. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with grounded appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
Keep the battery charger, battery pack(s) and the cordless tool out of the reach of children. Do not use the sup-
plied battery charger to charge other cordless tools. During periods of heavy use, the battery pack will become
warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before inserting it into the charger to recharge.
Do not overcharge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum charging times. These charging times only apply to dis-
charged batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or partially charged battery pack will result in overcharging and
cell damage. Do not leave battery in the charger for days on end. Never use or charge a battery if you suspect that
it has been more than 12 months since the last time they were charged. There is a high probability that the battery
pack has already suffered dangerous damage (exhaustive discharge). Do not use battery that have been exposed to
heat during the charging process, as the battery cells may have suffered dangerous damage. Do not use battery that
have suffered curvature or deformation during the charging process or those that exhibit other atypical symptoms
(gassing, hissing, cracking, etc.)
