Warning

• This device contains a built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery with soft battery cells. Battery

devices should replace a battery.

• Improper battery replacement, improper handling of parts, failure to discharge the battery

before repair, or failure to follow the provided instructions could cause battery overheating,

swelling, venting, leaking, or a battery thermal event. These events could result in fire, injury,

death, data loss, or damage to the device, parts, or other property.
