Never, Always, Caution On Lithium-ion Battery, Warning, Caution

Page 7 highlights

English 1. NEVER disassemble the battery. 2. NEVER incinerate the battery, even if it is damaged or is completely worn out. The battery can explode in a fire. 3. NEVER short-circuit the battery. 4. NEVER insert any objects into the battery charger's air vents. Electric shock or damage to the battery charger may result. 5. NEVER charge outdoors. Keep the battery away from direct sunlight and use only where there is low humidity and good ventilation. 6. NEVER charge when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C) or above 104°F (40°C). Charging the battery at temperatures outside the range of 32°F - 104°F (0°C - 40°C) may prevent proper charging and reduce battery life. 7. NEVER connect two battery chargers together. 8. NEVER insert foreign objects into the hole for the battery or the battery charger. 9. NEVER use a booster transformer when charging. 10. NEVER use an engine generator or DC power to charge. 11. NEVER store the battery or battery charger in places where the temperature may reach or exceed 104°F (40°C). 12. ALWAYS operate charger on standard household electrical power (120 volts). Using the charger on any other voltage may overheat and damage the charger. 13. ALWAYS wait at least 15 minutes between charges to avoid overheating the charger. 14. ALWAYS disconnect the power cord from its receptacle when the charger is not in use. CAUTION ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery equips with the protection function to stop the output. In the cases of 1 to 3 described below, when using this product, even if you are pulling the switch, the motor may stop. This is not the trouble but the result of protection function. 1. When the battery power remaining runs out, the motor stops. In such case, charge it up immediately. 2. If the tool is overloaded, the motor may stop. In this case, release the switch of tool and eliminate causes of overloading. After that, you can use it again. 3. If the battery is overheated under overload work, the battery power may stop. In this case, stop using the battery and let the battery cool. After that, you can use it again. Furthermore, please heed the following warning and caution. WARNING In order to prevent any battery leakage, heat generation, smoke emission, explosion and ignition beforehand, please be sure to heed the following precautions. 1. Make sure that swarf and dust do not collect on the battery. ⅜ During work make sure that swarf and dust do not fall on the battery. ⅜ Make sure that any swarf and dust falling on the power tool during work do not collect on the battery. ⅜ Do not store an unused battery in a location exposed to swarf and dust. ⅜ Before storing a battery, remove any swarf and dust that may adhere to it and do not store it together with metal parts (screws, nails, etc.). 2. Do not pierce battery with a sharp object such as a nail, strike with a hammer, step on, throw or subject the battery to severe physical shock. 3. Do not use an apparently damaged or deformed battery. 4. Do not use the battery in reverse polarity. 5. Do not connect directly to an electrical outlets or car cigarette lighter sockets. 6. Do not use the battery for a purpose other than those specified. 7. If the battery charging fails to complete even when a specified recharging time has elapsed, immediately stop further recharging. 8. Do not put or subject the battery to high temperatures or high pressure such as into a microwave oven, dryer, or high pressure container. 9. Keep away from fire immediately when leakage or foul odor are detected. 10. Do not use in a location where strong static electricity generates. 11. If there is battery leakage, foul odor, heat generated, discolored or deformed, or in any way appears abnormal during use, recharging or storage, immediately remove it from the equipment or battery charger, and stop use. CAUTION 1. If liquid leaking from the battery gets into your eyes, do not rub your eyes and wash them well with fresh clean water such as tap water and contact a doctor immediately. If left untreated, the liquid may cause eyeproblems. 2. If liquid leaks onto your skin or clothes, wash well with clean water such as tap water immediately. There is a possibility that this can cause skin irritation. 3. If you find rust, foul odor, overheating, discolor, deformation, and/or other irregularities when using the battery for the first time, do not use and return it to your supplier or vendor. 7
