CAUTION:
• If the temperature of the battery pack
falls approximately below −10°C
(14°F), charg ing will automatically stop
to prevent degradation of the battery.

between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0°C
(32°F), the tool may fail to function
properly.
• When charging a cool battery pack
(below 0°C (32°F)) in a warm place,
leave the battery pack at the place
and wait for more than one hour to
warm up the battery to the level of
the ambient temperature.
• Cool down the charger when charging
more than two battery packs consecu-
tively.
• Do not insert your fingers into contact
hole, when holding charger or any
other occasions.
To prevent the risk of fire or damage to
