expose to excessive heat . This can melt
insulation or damage safety features .

features, cause extremely high current
and voltage charging and lead to
abnormal chemical reactions .

designed for the battery pack, and
follow the safety precautions described
in "Charger Safety" . Using another
charger can damage safety features,
cause extremely high current and
voltage charging and lead to abnormal
chemical reactions .
