insert into 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 (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be
returned to service centre for recycling.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects can contact exposed battery termi-
nals. For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive
materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool 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 area with mild soap and water.
