Using and handling the rechargeable tool
a) Only charge the batteries with battery chargers recommended by the manufacturer. A
battery charger that is suitable for a particular type of battery poses a fire hazard when used
with other batteries.
b) Only use the batteries in power tools that are designed for them. The use of other bat-
teries can lead to injuries and a risk of fire.
c)
Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects that could cause a short-circuit between the contacts. A short-cir-
cuit between the contacts of the battery could result in burns or fires.
d) Liquid may leak from the battery if used incorrectly. Avoid contact with it. In case of
accidental contact, rinse with water. If the liquid gets into your eyes, seek additional
medical attention. Leaking battery fluid may cause skin irritation or burns.
Additional safety instructions
• Do not use a damaged or modified battery. Damaged or modified batteries can behave
unpredictably and cause fire, explosion or injury.
• Do not expose a battery to fire or excessive temperatures. Fire or temperatures above
130°C may cause an explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and never charge the battery or rechargeable tool out-
side the temperature range specified in the operating manual. Incorrect charging or
charging outside the approved temperature range can destroy the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
• Before commissioning, ensure that the mains voltage matches with the operating voltage
and the machine's power rating on the type plate.

carried out only by the manufacturer or an authorised customer service centre.
