7. Handling and Storage
Handling
Do not crush, pierce, short (+) and (-) battery terminals with conductive
(i.e. metal) goods. Do not directly heat or solder. Do not throw into fire.
Do not mix batteries of different types and brands. Do not mix new and used
batteries. Keep batteries in non conductive (i.e. plastic) trays.
Storage
Store in a cool (preferably below 30°C) and ventilated area, away from
moisture, sources of heat, open flames, food and drink. Keep adequate
clearance between walls and batteries. Temperature above 100°C may
result in battery leakage and rupture. Since short circuit can cause burn,
leakage and rupture hazard, keep batteries in original packaging until use
and do not jumble them.
Other
Lithium-Thionyl chloride batteries are not rechargeable and should not be
tentatively charged.
Follow Manufacturers recommendations regarding maximum recommended
currents and operating temperature range.
Applying pressure on deforming the battery may lead to disassembly
followed by eye, skin and throat irritation.
