– Never open, disassemble, crush, drop, subject to
heavy impact or otherwise damage the battery.
– Never expose the battery to microwaves or high
pressures.
– Never insert objects into the battery's cooling slots.
￭ Extreme temperatures may cause the battery to generate
heat, rupture, leak, ignite or explode, resulting in severe or
fatal personal injury and property damage. Exposure to
temperatures outside the recommended temperature
range may also reduce battery life and performance.
– Use and store the battery only within an
ambient temperature range of 14 °F to
122 °F (-10 °C to 50 °C).
￭ To reduce the risk of personal injury and property damage
in the event the battery emits smoke, has an unusual smell
or feels unusually hot while using, charging or storing:
– Immediately discontinue using or charging the
battery. Contact the authorities in the event of fire or
explosion.
￭ To reduce the risk of a short circuit, which could lead to
electric shock, fire and explosion:
– Keep STIHL AR 1000, 2000, 3000
backpack batteries dry. Protect from
rain, water and other liquids. Attach the
rain cover to the battery before starting
work in rain or in very damp conditions.
– If a STIHL AP or AR L battery has been
exposed to rain during work, remove it
from the product and allow it to dry
indoors. Make sure it is completely dry
before charging or using.
– Never immerse any STIHL battery in
water or other liquids.
– Never bridge the battery terminals with wires or
other metallic objects.
– Keep a battery that is not in use away from small
metal objects capable of conducting electricity (e.g.,
paper clips, nails, coins, keys).

– Store the battery indoors in a dry room.
– Never store the battery in damp or corrosive
environments or in conditions that could lead to
corrosion of its metal components.
– Never store the battery in the power tool.
– When storing the battery, maintain a charge of 40 %
to 60 % for STIHL AP series batteries and a charge
of 30 % to 45 % for STIHL AR series batteries (2
green LEDs).
– If storing the battery in the charger, disconnect the
charger from the outlet.
– Protect the battery from exposure to corrosive
agents such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.
– Protect the battery from exposure to conductive
liquids such as salt water.
– Do not attempt to repair, open or disassemble the
battery. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
￭ Leaking battery fluid is potentially harmful and can cause
skin and eye irritation, chemical burns and other serious
personal injury.
– Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
– Use an inert absorbent such as sand on spilled
battery fluid.
– In the event of accidental contact, immediately rinse
the contact area thoroughly with mild soap and
water.
– If fluid gets into your eye(s): do not rub. Rinse water
over the open eye(s) for at least 15 minutes and
seek medical attention.
￭ A battery fire can be dangerous. To reduce the risk of
severe personal injury and property damage in the event
of fire:
– Evacuate the area. Fire can spread rapidly. Stay
clear of any vapors generated and maintain a safe
distance.
– Contact the fire department.
