Safety Precautions
CAUTION ON HANDLING RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES (ACCUMULATOR
BATTERIES)
All nickel/metal hydride (Ni-MH) rechargeable batteries generate sufficient electrical current
to cause injury and/or damage regardless of the charge state indicated.
Nickel/metal hydride (Ni-MH) rechargeable batteries should never be exposed to fire or
disposed of with normal domestic waste. Nickel/metal hydride (Ni-MH) rechargeable
batteries can explode when exposed to open flames. These batteries constitute special
hazardous waste and can contaminate the ground water when disposed of at a waste dump.
Observe the following instructions precisely when handling rechargeable batteries to avoid
injury.
•
When a rechargeable battery is not installed in the hand-held instrument, it should be
stored in a clean, dry and non-conductive package.
• Ensure that the contracts on the rechargeable battery do not come into contact with
conductive materials.
•
Avoid touching the contact surfaces on the rechargeable battery.
• The rechargeable batteries can be charged while installed in the hand-held
instrument. Charging in any other manner can result in the rechargeable battery
exploding.
• Install, remove, store and charge the rechargeable batteries only in non-explosive
atmospheres.
•
Observe the operating and storage temperatures (see. Dimensions, Weights,
Operating Conditions).
• Do not allow children or persons not familiar with the safety precautions in these
operating instructions to handle or charge rechargeable batteries.
• Never open the rechargeable battery case. There are no user-serviceable parts in the
case and the rechargeable batteries contained in the case are not replaceable.
