WARNING
• Failure to charge the battery pack could result in permanent damage. If allowed to fully discharge, the battery may no
longer be able to hold a full charge and could result in permanent damage.
• Do not use battery pack if the casing is broken or if the battery pack emits an unusual odor, smoke, excessive heat, or leaks
any substance. Avoid contact with any substance seeping from the battery pack.
