5.Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat as they can leak or explode.

6.Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.

7.Remove the batteries from the unit if it is to be stored for an extended period to avoid battery

Battery Packs

The battery packs are nickel-cadmium

 

or nickel metal-hydride batteries.

 

Before using the supplied battery pack

 

or an optional battery pack, be sure to

 

read the following cautions:

 

1. To avoid hazard . . .

 

... do not burn.

 

... do not short-circuit the terminals.

Terminals

... do not modify or disassemble.

 

... use only specified chargers.

 

2.To prevent damage and prolong service life . . .

... do not subject to unnecessary shock.

... avoid repeated charging without fully discharg- ing.

... charge in an environment where temperatures are within the tolerances shown in the chart below. This is a chemical reaction type battery—cooler temperatures impede chemical reaction, while warmer temperatures can prevent complete charging.

... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.

... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.

... remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as some machines use current even when switched off.

NOTES:

It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after charging, or after use.

Temperature Range Specifications

Charging .............. 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) Operation ............ 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) Storage ................ –10°C to 30°C (14°F to 86°F)

Recharging time is based on room temperature of 20°C (68°F.)

The lower the temperature, the longer recharging takes.
