Full Swing Launch Monitor Safety Manual
Battery Care
The Launch Monitor system contains a lithium-ion battery. Lithium-ion batteries may be subject to
special handling requirements pursuant to federal and local laws. Do not handle the Launch Monitor
system if the battery is damaged or leaking. Disposal of batteries must be in accordance with local
environmental regulations. Storing batteries fully charged or in high temperature conditions may
permanently reduce the life of the battery. Available battery capacity may also be temporarily lessened
after storage in low temperature conditions.
WARNING: Do not expose the battery to excessive heat.
WARNING: Failure to read, understand, and follow these instructions may result in
overheating, chemical leakage, smoke emission, fire, or other potentially harmful
results.
 Always follow correct battery handling and storage practices. Incorrect handling and failure to abide
by correct storage instructions may result in permanent damage to batteries or degrade battery
charge holding capacity. Incorrect handling practices or failure to comply with instructions may also
put the customer at risk.
 Lithium-Ion batteries self-discharge with age. When storing for long periods of time, charge the
batteries to a capacity-level of 40% to 50%. If batteries are stored for long periods of time, Full
Swing recommends that the charge levels be checked at least once every six (6) months and
recharging the batteries to a capacity-level of 40% to 50%.
 Do not store the device with the batteries in a fully charged state for extended periods of time.
 Do not overcharge the battery. Overcharging may increase internal temperatures beyond the
recommended limits and cause permanent damage to the battery.
 When not in use, store the Launch Monitor system in a cool, dry place. Avoid extreme hot and cold
temperatures (such as inside a hot car).
 Do not expose the Launch Monitor system to corrosive gas.
 Do not expose the Launch Monitor system to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
 Storing batteries in a discharged state for long periods of time may result in loss of the ability to hold
a charge due to self-discharging.
 If recharging operation fails to complete even when a specified recharging time has elapsed,
immediately stop further recharging.
 Do not discard the Launch Monitor system and its internal battery into fire or heat.
 If the internal battery emits an odor, generates heat, or in any way appears abnormal during use,
recharging, or storage, immediately discontinue use.
 Should electrolytes begin leaking from the battery and come in contact with skin, clothing, or eyes,
do the following and seek medical assistance:
o Contact with skin or clothing, immediately wash the discharge off with running water. Failure
to do this can result in skin inflammation.
o Contact with eyes, do not rub them. Rinse the eyes with clean running water and
immediately seek medical attention. Failure to do this may result in eye injury.
