seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
9. Do not use damaged or modified batteries. Damaged or modified batteries may
behave in an unpredictable manner, resulting in hazardous effects (ignition, explosion,
personal injuries).
10. Ensure that the switch is in the OFF position before inserting the battery. Inserting
the battery into power tools with the switch on invites trouble. Injury hazard.
11. Charge battery pack only at ambient temperatures between +10°C and +40°C. Store
the battery in a dry location protected from cold where temperature would not
exceed +40°C.
Charger use and care
1. Do not attempt to open or disassemble the charger. If the charger has been dropped
or is damaged in any way, stop using it and do not attempt to repair it. Return the
charger for repair to an authorized service center or a qualified person, to avoid any
danger to the user; or discard it according to local laws.
2. Protect the charger against any heat source (e.g. direct sunlight exposure, fire,
heater) to prevent any damage to the charger.
3. Do not expose the charger to water, moisture and cold. Risk of electric shock.
4. If the power cord or the plug becomes damaged, stop suing the charger until it
has been repaired by a qualified person. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its authorized service center, in order to avoid a
hazard. Risk of electric shock.
5. Only use the charger provided with the tool, or a same type or same model charger
to charge the battery. The use of other types of charger increases the risk of electric
shock, personal injury and damage.
6. Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. Explosion hazard.
7. Only use the charger at ambient temperatures between +10°C and +40°C. Store charger
in a dry location protected from cold where temperature would not exceed +40°C.
8. The charger is intended for indoor use only. Place charger on solid, flat non-
flammable surface and away from any flammable materials when re-charging the
battery pack.
9. Do not recharge the battery pack in a wet or humid environment. The charger and
battery pack may heat during charging process.
Additional safety warnings for jigsaws
• Keep hands away from the sawing range. Do not reach under the workpiece. Contact
with the saw blade can lead to injuries.
• Apply the power tool to the workpiece only when switched on. Otherwise there is
danger of kickback when the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
• Pay attention that the base plate rests securely on the material while sawing. A
jammed saw blade can break or lead to kickback.
• When the cut is completed, switch off the power tool and pull the blade out of the cut
only after it has come to a complete standstill. In this manner you can avoid kickback
and can place down the power tool securely.
• Always wait until the power tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down.
