(1) Do not touch the terminals with any conductive material.

(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container with other metal objects such as nails, coins, etc.

(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or rain.

A battery short can cause a large current flow, overheating, possible burns and even a breakdown.

6. Do not store and use the tool and battery cartridge in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50 °C (122 °F).

7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery cartridge can explode in a fire.

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely discharged. Always stop tool operation and charge the battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.

2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge. Overcharging shortens the battery service life.

3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at 10 °C – 40 °C (50 °F – 104 °F). Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.

4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove it from the tool or the charger.

5. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for a long period (more than six months).

For battery cartridges used with a battery holder:

Refer to the instruction manual of the charger for how to charge the battery.

For the BL1055B battery:

Open the cover on the USB port. Connect the battery and AC Power Adapter ADP07 (not included) or other general USB charger using the USB cable supplied with the battery. The recommended output spec for a general USB charger is 5 V / 3 A or lower. After that, plug the AC Power Adapter ADP07 to the mains. When the charging is finished, all battery capacity indicators will light up and then turn off after a certain period. Unplug the AC Power Adapter and disconnect the USB cable, and then close the cover.

This applies only when using a battery cartridge with a battery holder.

CAUTION: Always switch off the device before installing or removing the battery cartridge.

CAUTION: Hold the battery holder and the battery cartridge firmly when installing or removing the battery cartridge. Failure to hold them firmly may cause them to slip out of your hands and result in damage and/or personal injury.

To install the battery cartridge:

Align the tongue on the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a little click. If you can see the red indicator, it is not locked completely. Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red indicator cannot be seen.

To remove the battery cartridge:

Slide it from the battery holder while pressing the button on the front of the cartridge.

Using the Battery Pocket (for BL1055B battery):

The battery can be stored in the battery pocket. Connect the plug of the power cable to the battery. Then put the battery into the battery pocket and fasten the fastener.

NOTE: The battery holder (with battery cartridge) cannot be stored in the battery pocket.

Attaching the Battery Holder (for CXT/LXT batteries):

You can hang the battery holder on your waist belt. To prevent the battery holder from dropping accidentally, attach a strap using the strap hole and secure it.

1. Feed the plug through the hole in the battery pocket and pull it through to the inside of the base layer shirt.

2. Attach the belt hook of the battery holder to your waist belt. Connect the plug of the power cable to the battery holder.

The battery holder has an anti-drop function. When removing the battery holder from the belt, pull up the battery holder while pressing the unlock button.

Power Button

To turn on the base layer shirt, connect all the cables, then press and hold the power button on the battery or battery holder. To turn off, press and hold the power button on the base layer shirt.

NOTE: The battery and the battery holder automatically turn off approximately 1 hour after the base layer shirt is turned off.

Temperature Adjustment

CAUTION: For continuous operation, set the temperature setting to “low” (blue). If the base layer shirt is overheated, it may cause a malfunction and cause an injury.

There are three temperature settings (high, medium, low). When you switch on the base layer shirt, the temperature is set to “low”. Each time you press the power button, the temperature setting changes. The color of the power button shows the current setting:

• Blue: “low”

• Red: “high”

• White: “medium”

NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly from the actual capacity.

Only when using the battery cartridge (with the indicator) used with battery holder:

Press the check button. The indicator lamps light up for a few seconds.

Battery BL1055B:

While the battery BL1055B is unplugged, press the power button. The battery capacity indicator lights up for a few seconds.

For LXT battery cartridges:

NOTE: The first (far left) indicator lamp will blink when the battery protection system works.

For Battery BL1055B:

CAUTION: Connect only devices that are compatible with the USB power supply port. Not doing so may cause a malfunction.

NOTICE: Before connecting a USB device, always back up the data on the USB device. Not doing so may cause a loss of your data.

NOTICE: The battery holder and Battery BL1055B may not supply power to some USB devices.

NOTICE: When not using or after charging, remove the USB cable and close the cover.

The battery holder (with the battery) and Battery BL1055B can work as an external power supply for USB devices.

1. Open the cover and connect a USB cable (not included) to the USB port. Then connect the other end of the cable to the device.

2. Start charging:

• When using battery holder (with the battery): press and hold the power button until the power level indicator lights up. The battery supplies DC 5 V, 2.4 A.

• When using Battery BL1055B: press the power button. The battery supplies DC 5 V, 1.5 A.

NOTE: The actual output current varies depending on the USB device to be connected.

NOTE: Battery power is consumed while the power button is turned on. Always turn off the switch when not in use.

CAUTION: Always be sure that the base layer shirt is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform inspections or maintenance.

NOTICE: Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.

Cleaning the base layer shirt:

• Detach the battery and the battery holder from the base layer shirt before washing.

• Follow the instructions on the tag.

• Do not wash the base layer shirt with other clothes. Doing so may cause color fading or color transfer.

• Use a laundry net when using a washing machine.

• Do not use fabric softener.

• Use only neutral detergent.

• After washing, take out the base layer shirt from the washing machine at once.

• Be sure to put the plug in the battery pocket and close the zip fastener before washing.

If the base layer shirt does not switch on or any fault is found with a fully charged battery cartridge, clean the terminals of the battery holder and the battery cartridge. If the base layer shirt still does not work properly, stop using the base layer shirt and contact our authorized service center.
