1. Never allow the battery to completely discharge before recharging. The
battery pack should be placed on the charger whenever the battery
pack is noticeably running down or the tool no longer performs a task it
previously performed.
2. Avoid conducting short charges. Make sure that the battery is fully
charged each time by allowing the charger to complete its full charging
cycle.
3. Avoid allowing loose items like screws or nails, etc., to be stored with
battery packs, as these or similar items can short battery packs and
cause a fire or explosion.
4. Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in a dry and se-
cure place.
5. Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below 0°C and
above 40°C.
6. After use, allow the battery pack to cool down for approximately 30 min-
utes before attempting to recharge.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:
• Check the main socket by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.
• Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surround-
ing air temperature is approximately 18-24°C.
• If charging problems persist, please contact service centre at 0345
605 2062.
7. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient
power on jobs which were easily done before. DO NOT CONTINUE to
use under these conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may
also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse
effect on the battery pack.
8 Under certain conditions with the charger plugged into the power supply,
the exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by
foreign materials. Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as,
but not limited to, steel wool, aluminium foil, or any build-up of metallic
particles, should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug
the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the
cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean.
9. Do not immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING!
Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic
housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, dispose of the battery pack in
accordance with local regulations; do not put it into further use.
