• Battery chemicals may cause serious
burns – Never let a damaged battery
pack contact the skin, eyes or mouth. If
damaged, battery chemicals will react
violently with air. Use rubber or neoprene
gloves to safely dispose of the battery. If
skin is exposed to battery chemicals, wash
the aected area with soap and water. If
eyes are exposed to battery chemicals,
immediately ush with water for 20 minutes
and seek medical attention. Remove and
dispose of contaminated clothing.
• Risk of short circuit – A battery pack
will short circuit if a metal object makes
a connection between the positive and
negative contacts on the battery pack. Do
not place a battery pack near anything
that may cause a short circuit, such as
paperclips, coins, keys, screws, nails and
other metallic objects. A short-circuited
battery pack poses a risk of re and severe
personal injury.
• Store your battery pack and charger in a
cool, dry place – Ideally, store the battery
pack at 59°F (15°C) and charged to at least
40%. Do not store the battery pack or
charger where temperatures may exceed
105ºF (40.5ºC), such as in direct sunlight
or inside a vehicle, or where temperatures
may drop below 41°F (5°C).
NOTE: Prevent the battery pack from
freezing. Battery packs that were stored
below 32°F (0°C) for more than 60 minutes
must be discarded.
• Charge before use – The battery pack
supplied with your vacuum is only partially
charged. The battery has to be fully
charged before using the product for the
rst time.
• Battery Aging – Lithium-ion batteries are
subject to a natural aging process. The
battery pack must be replaced at the latest
when its capacity falls to just 80% of its
capacity when new.
• Do not exhaustively discharge battery
packs – A complete discharge will damage
the battery cells. The most common cause
of exhaustive discharge is lengthy storage.
Stop working as soon as the performance
of the battery falls noticeably or the
electronic protection system triggers. For
optimum battery performance, charge the
battery pack frequently. Place the battery
pack in storage only after it has been fully
charged.
• Do not overload battery packs – Protect
the product and batteries from overloading.
Overloads will quickly result in overheating
and cell damage inside the battery housing
even if it is not apparent externally. For
safety reasons, the integrated protective
cuto will activate to switch o the
equipment. After regular use, allow the
battery pack to cool to room temperature
before inserting it into the charger to
recharge.
IMPORTANT! Do not attempt to turn on the
product if the protective cut-o has been
activated. This may damage the battery
pack.
• Outlet voltage – Please check the data
marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger. Be sure to connect the battery
charger to a power supply with the voltage
marked on the rating plate. Never connect
it to a dierent mains voltage.
• Charger use – Do not use the supplied
battery charger to charge other types of
battery packs or tools.
• Do not overcharge battery packs – Do
not exceed the maximum charging times.
Frequently overcharging the battery pack
will result in cell damage. Do not leave
battery connected to the charger for days
on end.
• Battery pack abnormalities – Do not
use batteries that have suered swelling
or deformation or those that exhibit other
atypical symptoms (gassing, hissing,
cracking, etc.).
• Electrostatic discharge – When handling
batteries, be wary of electrostatic charge.
Electrostatic discharges can damage
the electronic protection system and
the battery cells. To avoid electrostatic
discharges, never touch the battery
terminals.
