ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER AND BATTERY
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. First read the safety instructions
and then follow the charging notes and procedures.
• The longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is
charged when the air temperature is between 18 - 24ºC. Do not charge the battery
pack in an air temperature below 10ºC or above 40ºC. This is important and will
prevent damage to the battery pack.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is seriously damaged or is completely
worn out. The battery can explode in a fire.
• Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the
battery pack breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
Always switch off the drill before insertion or removal of the battery pack.
To Install the Battery Pack

the drill handle with the battery. Slide the drill onto the battery, ensuring the
battery release button locks into place.
