battery cartridge can explode in a fire.
14. Follow your local regulations relating to disposal of
battery.
15. The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject to the
Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. For
commercial transports e.g. by third parties, forwarding
agents, special requirement on packaging and
labeling must be observed.
For preparation of the item being shipped, consulting
an expert for hazardous material is required. Please

Electrical safety
1. Do not insert a nail, wire, etc. into USB power supply
port. Otherwise a circuit short may cause smoke and
fire.
2. Do not connect power source to USB port. Otherwise
there is risk of fire. The USB port is only intended for
charging lower voltage device. Always place the cover
onto the USB port when not charging the lower
voltage device.
CAUTION:
1. When the luminaire is not in use, always switch off
and remove the battery cartridge from the luminaire.
2. Do not store the luminaire and battery cartridge in
locations where the temperature may reach or exceed
50°C (122°F).
3. Do not give the luminaire a shock by dropping,
striking, etc.
4. Do not expose the light to eyes continuously. It may
hurt them.
5. Do not cover or clog the lit luminaire with cloth or
carton, etc. Covering or clogging it may cause a flame.
6. Do not disassemble the charger or battery cartridge;
take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair
is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk
of electric shock or fire.
7. Use the luminaires only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
8. If operating time has become excessively shorter, stop
operating immediately. It may result in a risk of
overheating, possible burns and even an explosion.
9. Do not use a damaged battery.
10. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop luminaire operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice less
luminaire power.
11. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
12. If any problem develops, consult your nearest Makita
Service Center or dealer. To maintain product safety
and reliability, repairs, maintenance or adjustment
should be carried out by Makita Authorized Service
Center.
13. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for a
long period (more than six months).
