The battery can be damaged by sharp
objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by
external force. An internal short-circuit may
occur and the battery can burn, smoke,
explode or overheat.
Never maintain damaged batteries. Any
maintenance of batteries should be per-
formed only by the manufacturer or by
authorised after-sales service centers.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g.,
against continuous intense sunlight,
max.50°C
fire, debris, water, and moisture. Dan-
ger of explosion and short-circuiting.
Operate and store the battery only at ambi-
ent temperatures between -20 °C and
+50 °C. As an example, do not leave the bat-
tery in a vehicle in summer. At temperatures
< 0 °C, machine-specific performance
restrictions are possible.
Charge the battery only at ambient temper-
atures between 0 °C and +35 °C. Charge the
battery via USB connection only at ambient
temperatures between +10 °C and +35 °C.
Charging the battery outside the tempera-
ture range may damage the battery or
increase the risk of fire.
Handle discharged batteries with care. Bat-
teries are a source of danger, as they can
cause a very high short-circuit current. Even
when Li-ion batteries appear to be in a dis-
charged state, they never fully discharge.
Do not immerse the battery in liquids, such
as (salt) water or beverages. Contact with
liquids can damage the battery. This may
result in heat build-up, smoke generation,
ignition or explosion of the battery. Do not
continue to use the battery and contact an
after-sales service authorized by FEIN.
Do not use a damaged battery. The use of a
battery pack must be stopped immediately
as soon as abnormal properties, such as
odor development, heat, discoloration or
deformation occur. Continued operation
can cause the battery to generate heat and
smoke, ignite or explode.
Do not open, crush, overheat or set fire to
the battery. Non-observance of this warning
may result in burns and fire. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
Extinguish burning Li-ion batteries with
water, sand or a fire blanket.
Avoid physical blows/impact. Impact and
penetration of objects can damage batter-
ies. This may result in leakage, heat build-up,
smoke generation, ignition or explosion of
the battery.
Never charge the battery unattended over-
night. Fire and explosion hazards can result
in case of non-observance.
Do not remove the battery from its original
packaging until it is going to be used.
Remove the battery only when the power
tool is switched off.
Before any work on the machine itself,
remove the battery from the power tool. If
the power tool accidentally starts, there is
danger of injury.
Protect the battery against moisture and
water. Clean contaminated battery terminals
and power tool connections with a dry,
clean cloth.
Remove the battery when transporting and
storing the power tool.
Observe the safety instructions in the manu-
als of the chargers from FEIN or the AMP-
Share partners.
