SAFETY WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
- When the appliance is not in use, always switch off, and unplug/remove the battery cartridge from the appliance.
- Do not cover the appliance in operation with cloth or carton, etc. Otherwise it may cause a flame.
- When using the appliance with AC power, do not use the appliance in damp or wet locations.
- Do not expose the appliance to rain or snow. Never wash it in water.
- Do not use the appliance in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
- Appliance plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plugs in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching outlet will reduce risk of electric shock.
- When operating the appliance, avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, microwave ovens, or refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
- Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the appliance. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
- If the external flexible cable or cord of this luminaire is damaged, it shall be replaced by a special cord or cord exclusively available from the manufacturer or his service agent.
- Do not stare at the source of light directly.
- Do not handle the plug with wet or greasy hand.

- The light source contained in this luminaire shall only be replaced by the manufacture or his service agent or a similar qualified person.
- Do not leave the power cord disconnected from the appliance while the power is supplied from an outlet. Doing so might cause an electric shock.
- Do not allow anything to cover or clog the vents of the appliance. Always keep clean the vent for cooling.
Battery appliance use and care
- Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the appliance with your finger on the switch or energizing appliance that have the switch on invites accidents.
- Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
- Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
- Use appliances only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
- When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
- Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
- Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
- Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
- Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
- Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.
