LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES

If equipped with a lithium-ion battery, the battery
must be collected, recycled or disposed of in
an environmentally sound manner.
"The EPA certified RBRC
Battery Recycling Seal on the
lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery
indicates Robert Bosch Tool
Corporation is voluntarily
participating in an industry

Battery leakage may occur under extreme
usage or temperature conditions. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes. The battery
liquid is caustic and could cause chemical
burns to tissues. If liquid comes in contact with
skin, wash quickly with soap and water. If the
liquid contacts your eyes, flush them with
water for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek
medical attention.
Place charger on flat non-flammable
surfaces and away from flammable
materials when re-charging battery pack.
The charger and battery pack heat during
charging. Carpeting and other heat insulating
surfaces block proper air circulation which may
cause overheating of the charger and battery
pack. If smoke or melting of the case are
observed unplug the charger immediately and
do not use the battery pack or charger.
Use of an attachment not recom-
mended or sold by Skil will result in a risk
of fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
