A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery. Use battery operated product only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire. For use with 18 V nickel-cadmium and 18 V lithiumion battery packs, see tool/appliance/battery pack/ charger correlation supplement 987000-432. PERSONAL SAFETY Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of the product in unexpected situations. Do not use the radio to listen to music or other audio programs while operating machinery. Doing so may cause distractions that could result in serious personal injury. This radio is capable of producing sound levels that can be dangerous to long-term hearing. Listening to music at high volume for any period of time may cause noise-induced hearing loss. The higher the volume, the less time required before your hearing may be affected. PRODUCT USE AND CARE When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire. Keep the radio and its handle dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleumbased products, or any strong solvents to clean the radio. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.

Do not place battery products or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly injury. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately. Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately. Do not charge battery product in a damp or wet location.
