• Use of an attachment not recommended
or sold by the battery charger manufac-
turer may result in a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons.
• To reduce risk of damage to 12V power
port connector and cord, pull by 12V
power port connector rather than cord
when disconnecting charger.
• To reduce risk of shock, do not attempt
to use both a.c. (mains) and d.c. (power
port) input at the same time.
• Make sure cord is located so that it will
not be stepped on, tripped over, or oth-
erwise subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not operate charger with damaged
cord or 12V power port connector – re-
place it immediately.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug
charger before attempting any mainte-
nance or cleaning.
• Use an appropriate power source. An
im proper power source may cause damage
to charger resulting in electrical shock, fire
or burns.
• Do not allow anything to cover the charg -
er while in use. Proper ventilation is re-
quired for correct operation of charger.
Covering vents may result in fire. Allow a
minimum of 3" (76 mm) of clearance around
the charger for proper ventilation.

Re duces risk of injury to children and un-
trained persons.
• Do not carry charger by power cord. Do
not pull cord to unplug. Reduces risk of
electrical shock.
Charger and Battery Safety
• Use appropriate Charger and Battery
combinations. See Specifications. Using
chargers and batteries that are not rated for
use together can cause the battery to burst,
fire or other personal injury.
• Do not use charger or battery if either
has been dropped, modified or damaged
in any way. Modified or damaged charger or
battery increases the risk of electrical shock.
• Do not open or disassemble the charg -
er or battery. There are no user servicea-
ble parts. Have repairs performed only at
authorized locations. Opening or disas-
sembling the charger or batteries may
cause electrical shock or personal injury.
• Do not probe charger or battery termi-

nals with conductive objects. Shorting of
terminals may cause sparks, burns or elec-
trical shock.
• Do not expose charger or battery to
damp or wet conditions, such as rain.
Make sure hands are dry when handling.
Moisture increases the risk of electrical
shock.
• Follow all charging instructions and do
not charge or store the battery pack
outside the temperature range speci-
fied in the instructions. Charging or stor-
ing improperly or at temperatures outside
the specified range may damage the bat-
tery and increase the risk of battery leak-
age, electrical shock or fire.
• This appliance can be used by children
8 years and above and persons with re-
duced physical, sensory or metal capa-
bilities or lack of experience and know -
ledge if they have been given supervi-
sion or instruction concerning use of
of the appliance in a safe way and inder-
stand the hazards involved.
• Children should be supervised to en-
sure that they do not play with the appli-
ance. Cleaning and maintenance shall not
be done by children without supervision.

Battery Safety

• Avoid contact with battery fluids. Fluids
may cause burns or skin irritation. For skin
contact, wash with soap and water. For
eye contact, immediately flush eyes thor-
oughly with water and continue flushing for
at least 15 minutes without rubbing. Seek
medical attention. See battery SDS for ad-
ditional information.
• Use batteries only with equipment spec -
ifically designating their use. Using Equip -
ment and batteries that are not rated for
use together can cause fire or other per-
sonal injury.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects, like pa -
per clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or
other small metal objects that can make
a connection from one terminal to an-
other. Shorting the battery terminals to-
gether may cause burns or a fire.
• Do not burn battery or expose to high
temperatures. High temperatures can
cause the battery to explode.
• Properly dispose of batteries. When dis-
posing, place tape over battery terminals to
prevent shorting. Bat teries are Li-Ion and
