Electrical and battery safety
1. Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in a re.
The cell may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instructions.
2. Do not open or mutilate the battery(ies).
Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause
damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if
swallowed.
3. Do not charge battery in rain, or in wet
locations.
4. Do not charge the battery outdoors.
5. Do not handle charger, including charger plug,
and charger terminals with wet hands.
6. Do not charge lawn mower in rain, or in wet
locations.
7. When replacing batteries, all batteries should
be replaced at the same time. Mixing fresh and
discharged batteries could increase internal cell
pressure and rupture the discharged battery.
8. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not
to short the battery with conducting materials
such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery
or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
9. Do not replace the battery in the rain.
10. Do not wet the terminal of battery with liquid
such as water, or submerge the battery. Do not
leave the battery in the rain, nor charge, use,

tery, the battery may be short circuited and there is
a risk of overheat, re, or explosion.

charger, be sure to attach the battery cover to
the battery and store it in a dry place.

inside and then wipe it with a dry cloth. Dry the
battery pack completely in a dry place before
use.
