Battery Pack; Storage Recommendations - DeWalt DC800 Traducido De Las Instrucciones Originales

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION
(Li-Ion)
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it
is severely damaged or is completely worn
out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic
fumes and materials are created when lithium ion
battery packs are burned.
• If battery contents come into contact with the
skin, immediately wash area with mild soap
and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse
water over the open eye for 15 minutes or until
irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed,
the battery electrolyte is composed of a mixture
of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause
respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If
symptoms persists, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid
may be flammable if exposed to spark or
flame.
Transportation
D WALT batteries comply with all applicable shipping
E
regulations as prescribed by industry and legal
standards which include UN Recommendations on
the Transport of Dangerous Goods; International
Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods
Regulations, International Maritime Dangerous Goods
(IMDG) Regulations, and the European Agreement
Concerning The International Carriage of Dangerous
Goods by Road (ADR). Lithium-ion cells and
batteries have been tested to section 38.3 of the UN
Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous
Goods Manual of Tests and Criteria.
In most instances, shipping a D
will be excepted from being classified as a fully
regulated Class 9 Hazardous material. In general, the
two instances that require shipping Class 9 are:
1. Air shipping more than two D
battery packs when the package contains only
battery packs (no tools), and
2. Any shipment containing a lithium-ion battery
with an energy rating greater than 100 watt hours
(Wh). All lithium-ion batteries have the watt hour
rating marked on the pack.
Regardless of whether a shipment is considered
excepted or fully regulated, it is the shipper's
responsibility to consult the latest regulations for
packaging, labeling/marking and documentation
requirements.
Transporting batteries can possibly cause fire if the
battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with
conductive materials. When transporting batteries,
make sure that the battery terminals are protected
and well insulated from materials that could contact
them and cause a short circuit.
