BATTERY & CHARGER SAFETY WARNINGS

Before using the charger or battery read all instructions and cautionary markings on the charger, battery pack and the product using the battery pack. Do not lose these safety instructions.Battery Warnings

  1. The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. First, read the safety instructions and then follow the charging notes and procedures.
  2. For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge cycles. Charge the battery pack frequently.
  3. Use and store the battery pack in dry conditions with low humidity between 0-50°C, ideally at 15°C. Avoid exposing battery pack and charger to direct sunlight.
  4. Do not keep battery pack in places where temperatures are liable to reach over 50°C, such as in a car, metal shed or similar that is in direct sunlight.
  5. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to fire. There is a risk of explosion!
  6. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery cells. The most common cause of exhaustive discharge is long-term storage and  continued use of low-charge batteries. Always store the battery with some charge. Charge the batteries every 2-3 months to restore charge. Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers.
  7. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing without this overheating being apparent externally.
  8. Avoid damage and shocks. Do not use batteries that have been dropped from a height of more than one meter or strong external impact, even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have suffered serious damage.
  9.  If the battery pack suffers overloading and overheating, the integrated protective cut-off will switch off the equipment. Do not press the ON/OFF switch on the tool if the protective cut-off has actuated. This may damage the battery pack. Allow the battery to cool to room temperature before use.
  10. Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries may result in injuries, explosions, and a fire risk.
  11. Protect your rechargeable battery against moisture, rain, and high humidity. Moisture, rain, and high humidity can cause dangerous cell damage. Never charge or use batteries that have been exposed to moisture, rain or high humidity.
  12. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack is damaged, do not use the battery.
  13. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
  14. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If accidental contact occurs, flush with water and seek medical help immediately. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
  15. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
  16. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C may cause an explosion.
  17. Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer.
  18. 18. Do not disassemble Battery. This may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.Charger Warnings
  19.  Please check the data mared on the rating plate of the battery charger. Ensure to only connect the battery charger to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating plate.
  20.  Protect the battery charger and its cable from damage and sharp edges. Have damaged cables repaired by an authorised service agent before use.
  21.  Keep the battery charger, batteries and the cordless tool out of children’s reach.
  22.  Do not use damaged battery chargers.
  23. Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other cordless tools. Only charge Ozito Power X Change rechargeable batteries with an Ozito Power X Change Charger.
  24.  The battery pack may become warm during use. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before commencing with the charging.
  25. .Do not overcharge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum charging times. These charging times only apply to discharged batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or partly charged battery pack will result in over-charging and cell damage. Do not leave fully charged batteries in the charger.26. Charge the battery pack in dry conditions with low humidity between 10-40°C. Avoid exposing the battery pack and charger to direct sunlight.
  26.  Do not use batteries that have suffered deformation during the charging process or show any other signs of abnormalities including, excessive curvature of the housing, gassing, hissing, or cracking.
  27. Never fully discharge the battery pack. A complete discharge of the battery pack will lead to premature aging of the battery cells.
  28. Never charge the batteries unsupervised.
  29. Do not cover or place any object on top of the charger, place the charger away from heat sources.
  30.  To reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger.
  31. Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
  32. An extension cord should not be used unless necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in the risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
  33. Do not disassemble the charger. This may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
  34. To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
  35. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near vapors and inflammable liquids.
