accessories, or storing machine. Such preven-

when used with another battery pack.

nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and re.
6. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects, that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a re.
7.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid con-
tacts eyes, seek medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
8. Do not use a battery pack or machine that is
damaged or modied. Damaged or modied
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.

excessive temperature. Exposure to re or tem-
perature above 130°C (265°F) may cause explosion.

tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
