Battery Pack Life; Battery Recycling - Panasonic EY7880 Operating Instructions Manual

• If the tool is operated continuously
under high-load conditions or if it is
used in hot-temperature conditions
(such as during summer), the over-
heating protection feature may ac-
tivate frequently.
• If the tool is used in cold-temper-
ature conditions (such as during
winter) or if it is frequently stopped
during use, the overheating protec-
tion feature may not activate.
• The ambient temperature range
is 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.
NOTE:
• In summer or in other situations
where the temperature is high, the
overheating protection feature may
activate and prevent continual use.
