Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a
soft brush that is clean and dry.

ates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.

u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
