23Instructions for Li-ion battery packs GB2 Safety information for Li-ion battery packsWarning! Read and observe allinformation and safety instruc-tions.Failure to observe thesafety guidelines and instructions maylead to electric shocks, fires and/or seri-ous injuries. Keep all safety information and other in-structions in a safe place for future ref-erence.Cells in lithium-ion battery packs aresealed so as to be gas-tight and are non-hazardous provided they are used andhandled in accordance with the manufac-turer's instructions.–Handle discharged batteries withcare. Battery packs represent a safe-ty hazard as they can cause a veryhigh short circuit current. Even if Li-ion battery packs appear to be dis-charged, they are in fact never fullydischarged.–Make sure that the battery pack is notsubjected to physical blows or im-pacts. Impacts and penetrating ob-jects may damage the batteries. Thismay lead to leakages, the generationof heat or smoke, or cause the batteryRBRC Seal - LiIonSymbol Significance

Ashort circuit between the battery con-tacts poses a risk of burns or fire–Protect the battery pack from exces-sive heat or constant heat sourcessuch as sunlight or naked flames.Fire and temperatures over 130 °Cmay cause explosions.–Do not open the battery pack. Open-ing or modifying the battery pack maydamage the protective devices. Thismay lead to the generation of heat orsmoke, or cause the battery pack toignite or explode.–Do not immerse the battery pack inliquids such as (salt) water or drinks.Contact with liquids may damage thebattery pack. This may lead to thegeneration of heat or smoke, or causethe battery pack to ignite or explode.Do not continue using the batterypack. Consult an authorised Festoolcustomer service agent.–Only charge the battery packs inchargers recommended by the man-ufacturer (see image). There is a riskof fire when using a charger which ismeant for a specific type of batterypack with a different battery pack.–Never use water to extinguish burn-ing Li-ion battery packs; always use

The vapourscould irritate your airways. Seek freshair and consult a doctor if you feel un-well. –Only use the battery pack in conjunc-tion with your Festool power tool.This is the only way to ensure that thebattery pack is protected against adangerous overload. Using a differenttool poses a fire hazard and may causepersonal injury.–Fluid may leak out of the battery packif it is used incorrectly. Avoid contactwith the fluid. Rinse with water anyareas which accidentally come intocontact with the fluid. If fluid gets intothe eyes, also consult a doctor. Leak-ing battery fluid can cause skin irrita-tion or burns.–Fluid may leak out of a faulty batterypack and contaminate neighbouringobjects. Check the parts affected.Clean them by soaking up the fluid us-ing dry kitchen towel and then rinsingwith plenty of water. Wear protectivegloves to avoid contact with the fluid.Replace the parts if necessary. –Do not use damaged or modified bat-tery packs. Battery packs which aredamaged or which have been modifiedmay exhibit unpredictable behaviourwhich could lead to fire, explosion or
GB Instructions for Li-ion battery packs26injury.–Do not open, compress, overheat(above 80 °C) or burn the batterypack. Failure to observe these precau-tions is a fire hazard and may result inburns. Observe the manufacturer's in-structions. –Do not use damaged battery packs.Stop using a battery pack immediate-ly if you notice anything unusual suchas odour formation, the generation ofheat, discolouration or deformation.If you continue to use the battery pack,it may get hot, emit smoke, ignite orexplode. 3Technical dataFor further technical specifications seethe rating plate on the battery pack.4 Intended useBattery packs are suitable for use withFestool cordless power tools and thespecified Festool chargers (see image).Battery pack BP 18 LiFrequency 2402–2480 MhzEquivalent Iso-tropically Radi-ated Power (EIRP)< 10 dBm
