SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER
1. Before using battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings in
this manual and on the battery charger, the
battery and the product using the battery
to prevent misuse of the products and
possible injury or damage.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of electric shock or
damage to the charger and battery, charge
only those lithium-ion rechargeable batteries
as specially designated on your charger's
label. Other types of batteries may burst,
causing personal injury or damage.
2. Do not use the charger outdoors or expose
it to wet or damp conditions. Water entering
the charger will increase the risk of electric
shock.
3. Use of an attachment not recommended or
sold by the battery-charger manufacturer
may result in a risk of fire, electric shock or
injury to persons.
4. Do not abuse the cord or charger. Never
use the cord to carry the charger. Do not
pull the charger cord to disconnect the plug
from receptacle. Damage to the cord or
charger could occur and create an electric
shock hazard. Replace damaged cords
immediately.
5. Make sure that the cord is located so that it
will not be stepped on, tripped over, come
in contact with sharp edges or moving
parts, or otherwise subjected to damage
or stress. This will reduce the risk of
accidental falls, which could cause injury
and damage to the cord, which could then
result in electric shock.
6. Keep cord and charger from heat to
prevent damage to housing or internal
parts.
7. Do not allow gasoline, oils, petroleum-
based products, etc. to come in contact
with plastic parts. These materials contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic.

8. An extension cord should not be used
unless absolutely necessary. Use of an
improper extension cord could result
in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an
extension cord must be used, make sure
that:
The pins on plug of extension cord are the
same number, size and shape as those of the
plug on charger.
The cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition
The size is large enough for AC ampere
rating of charger as specified below:
The Cord Length (Feet) 25' 50' 100'
Cord Size (AWG)
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
9. Do not operate the charger with a
damaged cord or plug, which could cause
shorting and electric shock. If damaged,
have the charger repaired or replaced
by an authorized service technician at
Service Center.
10. Do not operate the charger if it has
received a sharp blow, been dropped, or
has otherwise been damaged in any way.
Take it to an authorized service technician
at
Service Center for an electrical
check to determine if the charger is in
good working order.
11. Do not disassemble the charger. Take it
to an authorized service technician at a
.
Service Center when service or repair
is required. Incorrect reassembly may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
12. Unplug the charger from the electrical
outlet before attempting any maintenance
or cleaning to reduce the risk of electric
shock.
13. Disconnect charger from the power
supply when not in use. This will reduce
the risk of electric shock or damage to the
charger if metal items should fall into the
opening. It will also help prevent damage
to the charger during a power surge.
14. Risk of electric shock. Do not touch the
uninsulated portion of output connector or
uninsulated battery terminal.
