Important Safety Instructions For All Battery Packs - DeWalt DCV582 Traducido De Las Instrucciones Originales

A cold battery pack will charge at about half the
rate of a warm battery pack. The battery pack will
charge at that slower rate throughout the entire
charging cycle and will not return to maximum
charge rate even if the battery warms.
LITHIUM ION BATTERY PACKS ONLY
XR Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic
Protection System that will protect the battery
against overloading, overheating or deep discharge.
The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic
Protection System engages. If this occurs, place
the lithium-ion battery on the charger until it is fully
charged.
Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Packs
When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure
to include the catalog number and voltage.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the
carton. Before using the battery pack and charger,
read the safety instructions below and then follow
the charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not charge or use the battery pack
in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Inserting or removing the battery pack
from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Never force the battery pack into charger.
Do not modify the battery pack in any way
to fit into a non-compatible charger as
battery pack may rupture causing serious
personal injury.
• Charge the battery packs only in designated
D WALT chargers.
e
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other
liquids.
• Do not store or use the appliance and
battery pack in locations where the
temperature may reach or exceed 40˚ C
(105° F) (such as outside sheds or metal
buildings in summer).
• For best results, make sure the battery pack is
fully charged before use.
WARNING: Never attempt to open the
battery pack for any reason. If the battery
pack case is cracked or damaged, do
not insert it into the charger. Do not
crush, drop or damage battery pack.
Do not use a battery pack or charger
that has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, run over or damaged in any
way (e.g., pierced with a nail, hit with
a hammer, stepped on). Electric shock
or electrocution may result. Damaged
battery packs should be returned to the
service centre for recycling.
CAUTION: When not in use, place
appliance on its side on a stable
surface where it will not cause a
tripping or falling hazard. Some tools
with large battery packs will stand upright
on the battery pack but may be easily
knocked over.
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 the area with
mild soap and water. If the 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.
