WARNING
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 62841 and
may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level
represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for dierent applications, with dierent accessories or poorly maintained,
the vibration emission may dier. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched o or when it is running but
not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions
for future reference.
IMPACT DRIVER SAFETY WARNINGS
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the fastener may contact
hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Ambient temperature range for tool during operation is between 0°C
and 40°C.
Ambient temperature range for tool storage is between 0°C and 40°C.
The recommended ambient temperature range for the charging
system during charging is between 10°C and 38°C.
Additional safety warning
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
Clamp workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces
can cause severe injury and damage.
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the machine is
running.
When working in walls, ceiling, or floor, take care to avoid electric
cables and gas or waterpipes.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the product.
Remove battery pack before storing or transporting the product.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or
by burning them. AEG Distributors oer to retrieve old batteries to
protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short
circuit risk).
Use only AEG chargers for charging AEG battery packs. Do not
use battery packs from other systems.
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under extreme
load or extreme temperatures. In case of contact with battery
acid wash it o immediately with soap and water. In case of eye
contact rinse thoroughly for at least 10 minutes and immediately seek
medical attention.
Ambient temperature range for tool during operation is between 0°C
and 40°C.
Ambient temperature range for tool storage is between 0°C and 40°C.
The recommended ambient temperature range for the charging
system during charging is between 10°C and 38°C.
SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
The impact driver is intended for fastening and removing screws and
bolts using an impact socket.
Do not use the product for any other purpose.
BATTERIES
Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be
recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance of
the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure to heat or sunshine (risk
of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, the battery packs have to be fully charged,
after used.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery pack
from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
• Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C and
away from moisture.
• Store the battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition.
• Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack
or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or
conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and
bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.
Ambient temperature range for battery during use is between 0°C
and 40°C.
Ambient temperature range for battery storage is between 0°C and
20°C.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation
requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with
local, national and international provisions and regulations.
■ The user can transport the batteries by road without further
requirements.
■ Commercial transport of lithium-ion batteries by third parties is
subject to Dangerous Goods regulations. Transport preparation
and transport are exclusively to be carried out by appropriately
trained persons and the process has to be accompanied by
corresponding experts.
When transporting batteries:
■ Ensure that battery contact terminals are protected and insulated

17

to prevent short circuit.
■ Ensure that battery pack is secured against movement within
packaging.
■ Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak.
Check with forwarding company for further advice.
BATTERY PACK PROTECTION
The battery pack has overload protection that protects it from being
overloaded and helps to ensure long life. Under extreme stress the
battery electronics switch o the machine automatically. To restart,
switch the machine o and then on again. If the machine does not
start up again, the battery pack may have discharged completely. In
this case it must be recharged in the battery charger.
THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Overheated cells will reduce performance, run time and life.
Overheating can occur from battery packs being exposed to very hot
environments or from the tool they are powering being over-worked.
The control electronics will automatically shut down the battery pack
to protect the cells which in turn protects the electronics and motor
within the tool. The battery pack will automatically shut itself down
again should the temperature condition remain high when the trigger
is pulled again. The system will continue to shut the battery pack
down until the temperature is returned to a safe operating level.
CURRENT OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The control electronics will instantly shut down the battery back when
excessive current draw is detected - protecting both the battery cells
and the motor of the tool. Releasing the trigger will reset the battery
pack each time.
INDIVIDUAL CELL MONITORING
The control electronics constantly check each individual cell
and automatically adjust its charge and discharge requirements
accordingly.
This system maximises individual cell life whilst ensuring that the
battery pack is delivering peak performance to the tool at all times.
MAINTENANCE
The ventilation slots of the machine must be kept clear at all times.
Use only AEG accessories and AEG spare parts. Should components
need to be replaced which have not been described, please contact
one of our AEG service agents (see our list of guarantee/service
addresses).
If needed, an exploded view of the tool can be ordered. Please state
the Article No. as well as the machine type printed on the label and
order the drawing at your local service agents or directly at:
