(a) Precautions for safe handling
Always follow the warning information on the batteries and in the manuals of devices. Only use the recommended
battery types. Keep batteries away from children. For devices to be used by children, the battery casing should be
protected against unauthorized access. Unpacked batteries shall not lie about in bulk. In case of battery change
always replace all batteries by new ones of identical type and brand. Do not swallow batteries. Do not throw batteries
into water. Do not throw batteries into fire. Avoid deep discharge. Do not short-circuit batteries. Use recommended
charging time and current.
(b) Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Protect from moisture. Store locked up. Keep
out of the reach of children. Store away from other materials. It is recommended at -10℃~45℃ for 1 month storage,
at -10℃~35℃ for 3 months storage. Do not storage the Battery haphazardly in a box or drawer where they may
short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by other metal objects.
