does get wet, allow to dry for a minimum of 48 hours before using.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations
where the temperature may reach or exceed 105 °F (40 °C)
(such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer). For
best life store battery packs in a cool, dry location.

WARNING:
Fire hazard. Never attempt to open the
battery pack for any reason. If the battery pack case is cracked or
damaged, do not insert into the charger. Do not crush, drop or damage
the battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has
received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or damaged in any way
(e.g., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged
battery packs should be returned to the service center for recycling.
WARNING:
the battery pack so that metal objects can contact exposed
battery terminals. For example, do not place the battery pack in
aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with
loose nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting batteries can possibly
cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in
contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand
tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous
Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in
commerce or on airplanes (e.g., packed in suitcases and carry-on
luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So
when transporting individual battery packs, make sure that the battery
terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could
contact them and cause a short circuit.
