Intended use
Battery packs marked with CAS are 100% compatible with CAS devices (Cordless Alliance System).

Safety instructions
Do not recharge a fully charged battery pack!
Protect battery packs from water and moisture!
Do not expose battery packs to naked flame!
Do not use faulty or deformed battery packs!
In areas with high metal dust exposure do not load any battery packs with AIR COOLED chargers.
Do not open battery packs!
Do not touch or short-circuit battery packs!
Slightly acidic, flammable fluid may leak from defective Li-ion battery packs!
If battery fluid leaks out and comes into contact with your skin, rinse immediately with
plenty of water. If battery fluid leaks out and comes into contact with your eyes, wash them
with clean water and seek medical attention immediately!
Transporting li-ion battery packs: The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous
Goods Legislation requirements. The user can transport the batteries by road without further
requirements. When being transported by third parties (e.g.: air transport or forwarding agency),
special requirements on packaging and labelling must be observed. For preparation of the item being
shipped, consulting an expert for hazardous material is required. Only send the battery pack if the
housing is intact and no fluid is leaking. Remove the battery pack from the machine for sending.
Prevent the contacts from short-circuiting (e.g. by protecting them with adhesive tape). Dispatch
batteries only when the housing is undamaged. Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the
battery in such a manner that it cannot move around in the packaging. Please also observe possibly
more detailed national regulations.
Operation
Charge the battery pack before use.
If performance diminishes, recharge the battery pack.
The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and 30°C. The permissible storage temperature is
between 0°C and 50°C.
Li-ion battery packs have a capacity and signal indicator:
Press the button, the LEDs indicate the charge level.
If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost flat and must be recharged.
Disposal
Components of the unit are recyclable material and should be put to recycling. For this purpose
registered and certified recycling companies are available. For an environmental friendly disposal of
the non-recyclable parts (e.g. electronic waste) please contact your local waste disposal authority. Old
batteries can be taken to your specialist dealer who will dispose of them in conformity with
environmental regulations.
For EU countries only:
Do not dispose of electric tools with domestic waste. In accordance with European
Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its
implementation as national law, electric tools that are no longer serviceable must be
collected separately and utilised for environmentally compatible recycling.
