g) When the battery is not in use, store it away from metal objects such
as paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or any other small metal
objects that can short-circuit the battery connectors. Short-circuit of
battery connectors may cause burns or fire.
h) In case of battery damage and/or improper use it may produce gas.
Ventilate room and seek medical attention in case of medical
symptoms. Gas can damage respiratory tract.
i) In extreme conditions liquid may leak out of the battery. The liquid
coming out of the battery may cause irritations or burns. When a
leak is found, follow the below procedure:
- Carefully wipe the liquid with a cloth. Avoid contact of the liquid
with skin or eyes.
- In case the liquid gets onto skin, immediately wash the spot
abundantly with clean water, you can also neutralize the liquid with
mild acid, e.g. lemon juice or vinegar.
- When the liquid gets into eyes, immediately start and keep washing
them with a lot of clean water for at least 10 minutes. Seek medical
advice.
j) Do not use damaged or modified battery. Damaged or modified
batteries may behave unpredictably, causing fire, explosion or risk of
injuries.
k) Do not expose the battery to humidity or water.
l) Always keep the battery away from sources of heat. Do not leave the
battery for a long time in high temperature (in direct sunlight, in
proximity of heaters and wherever the temperature exceeds 50°C).
m) Do not expose the battery to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.
CAUTION! Temperature of 130°C can be also defined as 265°F.
n) Observe all charging instructions. Do not charge the battery in
temperature outside of range defined in the rating data table from
the instruction manual. Incorrect charging or charging in temperature
outside of defined range may damage the battery and increase the risk of
fire.
Repair:
a) Do not repair damaged batteries. Battery can be repaired only by the
manufacturer or in an authorised workshop.
b) When disposing of the worn out battery, take it to a service point
where you can utilize such dangerous wastes.
CAUTION!
Li-Ion batteries may leak, set on fire or explode when heated to
high temperature or short-circuited. Do not store the batteries in a
car in hot and sunny days. Do not open the battery. Li-Ion batteries
contain electronic protection devices that, if damaged, may cause
fire or explosion of the battery.

therein.
2. Do not throw cells into fire.
3. Hazardous to water environment.
4. Do not allow to heat above 50°C.
5. Recycling.
6. Segregated waste collection.
DESIGN AND INTENDED USE
Batteries 58G001, 58G004, 58G086 are designed for use with the power
tools of the Energy+ System.
* 58G086 batteries are dedicated for the group of devices that are
powered from two batteries, however you can use these also for other
tools. Due to larger dimensions the batteries may limit mechanical
capabilities to obtain declared parameters and operation capacities in
certain devices of the type. It can be e.g. reduction of maximum cutting
depth of circular saws, forced change of angle when using additional
items installed on the device, such as dust extraction system on an
orbital sander etc. However, such inconvenience does not have impact
on operational safety.
These batteries use Li-Ion cells for power storage, the cells are
connected in series, or in parallel and in series. Each battery is equipped
with electronic controller board that controls and secures charging and
discharging process. The monitoring covers electric parameters and
temperature.
Use the batteries only in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING PAGES

drawing pages of this manual.
1. Battery lock button
2. Button for battery level indication
3. Battery level indicator (LED)
* Differences may appear between the product and drawing.
MEANING OF SYMBOLS
WARNING
OPERATION / SETTINGS
BATTERY CHARGING
The battery is supplied partially charged. Charge the battery in ambient
temperature between 4°C and 40°C. New battery, or one that has not
been used for a long time, will reach full efficiency after approximately
3 to 5 charge/discharge cycles.
The battery lock button (1) is used to release the battery lock in the
device.
Do not charge the battery for more than 8 hours. Exceeding
this time limit may cause damage to battery cells. Avoid
consecutive short chargings. Do not charge the battery after short
use of the tool. Significant decrease of the period between
chargings indicates the battery is worn out and should be replaced.
Batteries heat up during charging process. Do not work just
after charging has been finished, wait until the battery cools down
to room temperature. It will prevent the battery damage.
BATTERY LEVEL INDICATION
The battery is equipped with battery level indicator (3 LED diodes)
(3). To check the battery level status, press the button for battery
level indication (2). When all diodes are on, the battery level is high.
When 2 diodes are on, the battery is partially discharged. When only
one diode is lit, the battery is discharged and must be recharged.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• Cleaning the battery after each use is recommended.
• Do not use water or any other liquid for cleaning.
• Clean the battery with a dry cloth.
• Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents, since they may damage
plastic parts.
• Always store the battery in a dry place, beyond reach of children.
All defects should be repaired by service workshop authorised by the
manufacturer.
