up. Let it cool down before charging it.
8. Do not store the battery charger and the batteries
within children's reach.
9. Do not use the battery charger in an environment
with vapors or inflammable fluids.
10. Charge the batteries only at a temperature within the
range of 10°C to 40°C.
11. Store the battery at temperatures up to 30°C only.
Higher storage temperatures may result in damage
to the battery. The ideal storage temperature range
is 10-15°C.
12. Protect the battery from heat, intense insolation and
fire. Explosion hazard!
13. In case of damage to the battery, hazardous vapours
or fluids may escape. In case of incidental contact
flush with water and seek medical advice immedi-
