on the appliance. These carry important safety
information. If unreadable or missing, contact

21. Battery appliance use and care
a. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

to battery pack, picking up or carrying the
appliance. Carrying the appliance with your
finger on the switch or energizing appliance
that have the switch on invites accidents.

designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
d. When 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.
e. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water.
If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
