2. Safety Considerations
• Read this section carefully before use and be sure to follow the instructions.
• Inspection, maintenance, repairs, disassembly, adjustment and valve
opening/closing should be carried out only by trained maintenance personnel.
• The precautions listed in this manual are designed to ensure safety and prevent
equipment damage and personal injury. For situations that may occur as a result
of erroneous handling, three different types of cautionary items are used to
indicate the degree of urgency and the scale of potential damage and danger:
DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION.
•
The three types of cautionary items above are very important for safety: be sure to
observe all of them as they relate to use, maintenance and repair. Furthermore,
TLV accepts no responsibility for any accidents or damage occurring as a result of
failure to observe these precautions.

WARNING
Cease use of the batteries immediately if the unit exhibits
abnormal operation.
If irregularities such as fluid leakage, an unusual smell, unusual heat
generation, discoloration or deformation are noticed, cease use of the
unit immediately. If use is continued under such conditions, excessive
heat generation, ignition or rupture may result.
If battery fluid leaks and comes into contact with the body, rinse
immediately.
There is danger of resultant damage to the skin. Immediately rinse any
battery fluid off with clean water.
CAUTION
When not intending to use for extended periods of time, remove
the battery pack from the unit and store in a dry, cool, dark
location.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in fluid leakage, rust,
deterioration in performance or a reduction in service life.
Do not dispose batteries with normal garbage.
If at any time the batteries become unusable, observe your company
regulations for proper disposal in accordance with local laws. If proper
disposal is impossible, insulate the contact terminals by covering them
