! unplug the charger from the tool
after charging period has ended
thereby lengthening the service
life of the battery
IMPORTANT:
- while charging, the charger and the
battery may become warm to touch;
this is normal and does not indicate
a problem
- do not charge at temperatures
below 0°C and over 40°C; this will
seriously damage the battery as well
as the charger
! a battery that is new or has not
been used for a longer period
does not develop its full capacity
until after approximately 5
charging/discharging cycles
- do not repeatedly recharge the
battery after only a few minutes of
operation; this may result in a
reduction of operating time and
battery effi ciency
- the battery must be kept separate
from the natural environment and
should not be disposed of as normal
domestic waste (symbol 6 will
remind you of this when the need for
disposing occurs)
! prior to disposal protect battery
terminals with heavy tape to
prevent short-circuit
