CHARGING SAFETY

1.READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS and warnings on the battery and charg- er before charging the battery.

2.CHARGE ONLY USING THE SUP- PLIED CHARGER AND BAT- TERY. Do not use with other batter- ies, chargers or cordless equip- ment.

3.DO NOT EXPOSE BATTERY OR CHARGER TO WET OR RAINY CONDITIONS. Moisture greatly increases the risk of a shock haz- ard.

4.DO NOT TOUCH BATTERY POLES with any conductive materi- als. Touching any two poles at the same time causes a short condition and can cause sparks, electrical shock or fire.

5.DO NOT STORE BATTERY WITH

CONDUCTIVE MATERIALS. Storing the battery in a box of screws or nails can cause shorting across the battery poles.

6.DO NOT THROW BATTERY IN FIRE. Combustion of some of the batteries’ component materials can cause toxic fumes and possible

explosion.

7.IF CHARGER LIGHT FAILS TO COME ON check the incoming power supply. If power source is okay, then the fuse inside the charger needs replacement. Charger should be serviced by a qualified electrical technician only.

8.CHARGER HAS A POLARIZED PLUG (one prong is wider than the other). Do not attempt to modify the plug. Modifying the plug will result in a safety hazard and will void the warranty.

9.CHARGER IS DESIGNED TO OPERATE AT 110-120 VOLTS. Never try to plug into any circuit that is not 110-120 volts. Never modify or change the plug that is attached to the charger unit to attempt to plug into 220 volt. This can cause serious electrical damage to the unit, possible fire or explosion.
