• Do not cut, damage, alter or place heavy items on the power cord.
Any of these actions may cause an electrical short circuit, which may lead
to fire or electrical shock.
• Do not handle the power cord if your hands are wet. Handling it with wet
hands may lead to electrical shock. When unplugging the cable, ensure
that you hold the solid portion of the plug. Pulling on the flexible portion of
the cable may damage or exposure the wire and insulation, creating the
potential for fires or electrical shocks.
• Use only recommended power accessories. Use of power sources not
expressly recommended for this equipment may lead to overheating,
distortion of the equipment, fire, electrical shock or other hazards.
• Do not place the battery pack near a heat source or expose it to direct
flame or heat. Neither should you immerse it in water. Such exposure
may damage the battery pack and lead to the leakage of corrosive liquids,
fire, electrical shock, explosion or serious injury.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to the battery pack.
There is serious risk of injury due to an explosion. Immediately flush with
water any area of the body - including the eyes and mouth, or clothing -
that comes into contact with the inner contents of a battery. If the eyes or
mouth contact these substances, immediately flush with water and seek
medical assistance.
• Avoid dropping or subjecting the battery pack to severe impacts that
could damage the casings. It could lead to leakage and injury.
• Do not short-circuit the battery terminals with metallic objects, such as
key holders. It could lead to overheating, burns and other injuries. Use
the supplied terminal cover to transport or store the battery pack.
• Before you discard a battery, cover the terminals with tape or other
insulators to prevent direct contact with other objects. Contact with the
metallic components of other materials in waste containers may lead to
fire or explosions. Discard the battery pack in specialized waste facilities if
available in your area.
• Use only recommended battery pack and accessories. Use of battery
pack not expressly recommended for this equipment may cause
explosions or leaks, resulting in fire, injury and damage to the
surroundings.
