4. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
5. Do not use a battery cartridge or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged
or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
6. Do not expose a battery cartridge or tool to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C (265 °F) may cause explosion.
7. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery cartridge or
tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
8. Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is
maintained.
9. Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery cartridge
except as indicated in the instructions for use and care.
10. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
connecting to the battery cartridge, or picking up or carrying the robotic
cleaner. Carrying the robotic cleaner with your finger on the switch or
energizing the robotic cleaner with the switch on may cause accidents.
11. Disconnect the battery cartridge from the robotic cleaner before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the robotic cleaner. Such
preventive safety measures reduces the risk of starting the robotic cleaner
accidentally.
12. The battery cartridge is not charged sufficiently when factory -shipped. Charge
the battery before use.
13. When not using the battery cartridge, always put the cover on it.
Important safety instructions for battery cartridge
1. Before using battery cartridge, read all instructions and cautionary markings
on (1) battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.
2. Do not disassemble or tamper with the battery cartridge. It may result in a fire,
excessive heat, or explosion.
3. If operating time has become excessively shorter, stop operating immediately.
It may result in a risk of overheating, possible burns and even an explosion.
4. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them out with clear water and seek
medical attention right away. It may result in loss of your eyesight.
5. Do not short the battery cartridge:
(1) Do not touch the terminals with any conductive material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container with other metal objects such
as nails, coins, etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or rain. A battery short can cause
a large current flow, overheating, possible burns and even a breakdown.
6. Do not store and use the tool and battery cartridge in locations where the
temperature may reach or exceed 50 °C (122 °F).
7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if it is severely damaged or is
completely worn out. The battery cartridge can explode in a fire.
8. Do not nail, cut, crush, throw, drop the battery cartridge, or hit against a hard
object to the battery cartridge. Such conduct may result in a fire, excessive
heat, or explosion.
9. Do not use a damaged battery.
10. The contained lithium -ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods
Legislation requirements. For commercial transports e.g. by third parties,
forwarding agents, special requirement on packaging and labeling must be
observed.
For preparation of the item being shipped, consulting an expert for hazardous
material is required. Please also observe possibly more detailed national
regulations.
Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the battery in such a manner that
it cannot move around in the packaging.
11. When disposing the battery cartridge, remove it from the tool and dispose of it
in a safe place. Follow your local regulations relating to disposal of battery.
12. Use the batteries only with the products specified by Makita. Installing the
batteries to non -compliant products may result in a fire, excessive heat,
explosion, or leak of electrolyte.
13. If the tool is not used for a long period of time, the battery must be removed
from the tool.
14. During and after use, the battery cartridge may take on heat which can cause
burns or low temperature burns. Pay attention to the handling of hot battery
cartridges.
15. Do not touch the terminal of the tool immediately after use as it may get hot
enough to cause burns.
16. Do not allow chips, dust, or soil stuck into the terminals, holes, and grooves
of the battery cartridge. It may result in poor performance or breakdown of the
tool or battery cartridge.
17. Unless the tool supports the use near high -voltage electrical power lines, do
not use the battery cartridge near high -voltage electrical power lines. It may
result in a malfunction or breakdown of the tool or battery cartridge.
18. Keep the battery away from children.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Only use genuine Makita batteries. Use of non-genuine Makita batteries,
or batteries that have been altered, may result in the battery bursting
causing fires, personal injury and damage. It will also void the Makita
warranty for the Makita tool and charger.
Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely discharged. Always stop tool
operation and charge the battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge. Overcharging shortens the
battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F -
104 °F). Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove it from the tool or the charger.
5. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for a long period (more than
six months).
