15)Do not store the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50°C (122°F) (such as a metal tool shed, or a car in the summer), which can lead to deterioration of the storage battery.
16)Do not charge battery pack when the temperature is BELOW 0°C (32°F) or ABOVE 40°C (104°F). This is very important in order to maintain optimal condition of the battery pack.
17)Do not incinerate the battery pack. It can explode in a fire.
18)Avoid dangerous environment. Do not use charger in damp or wet locations.
