Shipping the DEWALT FLEXVOLT® Battery Pack
The DEWALT FLEXVOLT® battery pack has a battery cap that should be used when shipping
the batterypack.
Attach the cap to the battery pack to ready it for shipping. This converts the battery pack to
three separate 20V batteries. The three batteries have the Watt hour rating labeled “Shipping”
on the battery pack. If shipping without the cap or in a tool, the pack is one battery at the Watt
hour rating labeled“Use”.
Example battery pack label:
USE: 120 Wh SHIPPING: 3 x 40 Wh
In this example, the battery pack is three batteries with 40Watt hours each when using the
cap. Otherwise, the battery pack is one battery with 120Watthours.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance
outside of the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or
at temperatures outside of the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk
offire.
• If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with
mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for
15minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is
composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithiumsalts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If
symptoms persist, seek medicalattention.
• Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark orflame.
• Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the battery pack case is
cracked or damaged, do not insert into the charger. Do not crush, drop or damage
the battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, run over or damaged in any way (e.g., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped
on). Damaged battery packs should be returned to the service center forrecycling.
Storage Recommendations
The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and excess heat or
cold. Store the fully charged battery pack out of thecharger.
Battery Pack Cleaning Instructions
Dirt and grease may be removed from the exterior of the battery pack using a cloth or soft
non‑metallic brush. Do not use water or any cleaningsolutions.
Fuel Gauge Battery Packs (Fig. B)
Some battery packs include a fuel gauge. When the fuel gauge button is pressed and held,
the LED lights will indicate the approximate level of charge remaining. This does not indicate
tool functionality and is subject to variation based on product components, temperature, and
end‑userapplication.
Transportation
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store, carry, or transport the battery pack so that
metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place the
battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose
nails, screws, keys, coins, hand tools, etc. When transporting individual battery packs,
make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that
could contact them and cause a short circuit. NOTE: Li‑ion battery packs should not be
put in checked baggage on airplanes and must be properly protected from short circuits if
they are in carry‑onbaggage.

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, and cautionary markings
for the battery pack, charger and product. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or seriousinjury.
• Do not charge or use the battery pack in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery pack from
the charger may ignite the dust orfumes.
• NEVER force the battery pack into the charger. DO NOT modify the battery pack in
any way to fit into a non‑compatible charger as battery pack may rupture causing
serious personal injury. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of
batteries andchargers.
• Charge the battery packs only in DEWALTchargers.
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or otherliquids.
• DO NOT allow water or any liquid to enter batterypack.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature
may reach or exceed 104°F (40°C) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in
summer). For best life store battery packs in a cool, drylocation.
NOTE: Do not store the battery packs in a tool with the trigger switch locked on.
Never tape the trigger switch in the ONposition.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely
worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when
lithium‑ion battery packs areburned.
