SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Know your product. Read operator’s manual carefully.
Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the
specific potential hazards related to this product.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire or serious injury.
Battery products do not have to be plugged into
an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in
operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards
when not using your battery product or when changing
accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire or serious personal injury.
Do not place battery products or their batteries near
fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and
possibly injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped
or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the
presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light.
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use
any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An
exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If
exposed, flush with water immediately.
Do not charge battery product in a damp or wet
location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock.
For best results, your battery product should be
charged in a location where the temperature is
more than 10°C but less than 37°C. To reduce the
risk of serious personal injury, do not store outside or in
vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact
with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water,
then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid
gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for
at l
east 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical
attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious
personal injury.
To reduce the risk of personal injury and electric shock,
the product should not be played with or placed where
small children can reach it.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose to
water or rain.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
