5.
If the battery charging fails to complete even
when a specifi ed recharging time has elapsed,
immediately stop further recharging.
6.
Do not put or subject the battery to high
temperatures or high pressure such as into
a microwave oven, dryer, or high pressure
container.
7.
Keep away from fi re immediately when leakage
or foul odor are detected.
8.
Do not use in a location where strong static
electricity generates.
9.
If there is battery leakage, foul odor, heat
generated, discolored or deformed, or in any
way appears abnormal during use, recharging
or storage, immediately remove it from the
equipment or battery charger, and stop use.
10. Do not immerse the battery or allow any fl uids
to fl ow inside. Conductive liquid ingress, such
as water, can cause damage resulting in fi re
or explosion. Store your battery in a cool, dry
place, away from combustible and fl ammable
items. Corrosive gas atmospheres must be
avoided.
CAUTION
1.
If liquid leaking from the battery gets into your
eyes, do not rub your eyes and wash them well
with fresh clean water such as tap water and
contact a doctor immediately.
If left untreated, the liquid may cause eye-
problems.
2.
If liquid leaks onto your skin or clothes, wash
well with clean water such as tap water
immediately.
There is a possibility that this can cause skin
irritation.
3.
If you fi nd rust, foul odor, overheating, discolor,
deformation, and/or other irregularities when
using the battery for the fi rst time, do not use
and return it to your supplier or vendor.
WARNING
If an electrically conductive foreign object
enters the terminals of the lithium ion battery,
a short-circuit may occur resulting in the risk of
fi re. Please observe the following matters when
storing the battery.
●
Do not place electrically conductive
cuttings, nails, steel wire, copper wire or
other wire in the storage case.
●
Either install the battery in the power tool
or store by securely pressing into the
battery cover until the ventilation holes
are concealed to prevent short-circuits
(See Fig. 3).
REGARDING LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
TRANSPORTATION
When transporting a lithium-ion battery, please
observe the following precautions.
WARNING
Notify the transporting company that a package
contains a lithium-ion battery, inform the
company of its power output and follow the
instructions of the transportation company
when arranging transport.
●
Lithium-ion batteries that exceed a power
output of 100 Wh are considered to be in
the freight classifi cation of Dangerous
Goods and will require special application
procedures.
●
For transportation abroad, you must
