charger before using your power tool for the first
time.
•
Keep battery packs out of the reach of children.
•
Do not open the battery. There is a risk of
shortcircuiting.
•
In case of damage and improper use of the battery,
vapours may be emitted. The battery can set alight
or explode. Ensure the area is well ventilated
and seek medical attention should you experience
any adverse effects. The vapours may irritate the
respiratory system.
•
If used incorrectly or if the battery is damaged,
flammable liquid may be ejected from the battery.
Contact with this liquid should be avoided. If contact
accidentally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid
comes into contact with your eyes, seek additional
medical attention. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritation or burns.
•
If the battery is damaged liquid can be ejected and
cover nearby surfaces. Check affected parts. Clean
these parts or change them if necessary.
•
Do not short-circuit the battery pack. When the
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.
•
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects
such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied
externally. An internal short circuit may occur,
causing the battery to burn, smoke, explode or
overheat.
•
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of
battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
•
Protect the battery against heat, e. g. against
continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water and
moisture. There is a risk of explosion and short-
circuiting.
•
Use the battery in the product only when the ambient
temperature is between -20 °C – 50 °C.
•
Only store the battery at an ambient temperature
between -20 °C – 50 °C. Do not leave the
battery in your car in the summer, for example.
At temperatures of < 0 °C some devices may
experience a loss of power.
•
Only charge the battery at an ambient temperature
which is between 0 °C – + 35 °C.
•
Only charge the rechargeable battery with a USB
cable at an ambient temperature which is between
+10 °C – +35 °C. Charging outside of this
temperature range can increase the risk of damage
to the battery and pose a fire hazard.
Battery charger safety
WARNING:
general instructions. Failure to observe the
safety and general instructions may result in
1888 - 004 - 22.09.2022
Read all the safety and
electric shock, fire and / or serious injury.
Store these instructions in a safe place.
Only use the charger if you can fully
evaluate all functions and carry them out
without restrictions, or if you have received
corresponding instructions.
•
Supervise children during use, cleaning and
maintenance. This will ensure that children do not
play with the charger.
•
Charge only lithium-ion batteries of the POWER
FOR ALL system 18V with a capacity of 1.5 Ah
or more (5 battery cells or more). The battery
voltage must match the battery charging voltage of
the charger. Do not charge any nonrechargeable
batteries. Otherwise there is a risk of fire and
explosion.
•
Do not expose the charger to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
•
Keep the charger clean. Dirt poses a risk of electric
shock.
•
Always check the charger, cable and plug before
use. Stop using the charger if you discover any
damage. Do not open the charger yourself, and
have it repaired only by a qualified specialist using
only original replacement parts. Damaged chargers,
cables and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
•
Do not operate the charger on an easily ignited
surface (e. g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in a flammable
environment. There is a risk of fire due to the
charger heating up during operation.
•
Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
•
In case of damage and improper use of the battery,
vapours may also be emitted. Ensure the area is well
ventilated and seek medical attention should you
experience any adverse effects. The vapours may
irritate the respiratory system.
•
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery. Contact with this liquid should be
avoided. If contact accidentally occurs, rinse off with
water. If the liquid comes into contact with your eyes,
seek additional medical attention. Liquid ejected
from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
•
Do not cover the ventilation slots of the charger.
Otherwise, the charger may overheat and no longer
function properly.
•
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply
cord needs to be replaced, this must be done by
Husqvarna or by a customer service centre that is
authorised to repair Husqvarna power tools.
