HANDLING AND STORAGE
When used correctly, Lithium-ion Polymer Battery
Pack (Rechargeable Single cell Battery) provides a
safe and dependable source of power. However, if they
are misused or abused, leakage, venting, or in extreme
cases explosion and/or fire may result. Make sure to
observe amongst others, following warnings.
Handling
▪ Do not insert batteries in reverse. Observe the
polarity markings on battery and equipment
▪ Do not short-circuit batteries
▪ Do not overcharge batteries
▪ Do not force discharge batteries
▪ Do not mix batteries
▪ Do not overheat batteries by exposure to high
temperatures and direct sunlight.
▪ Do not weld or solder directly to batteries
▪ Do not dismantle batteries
▪ Do not deform batteries
▪ Do not dispose of batteries in fire
▪ A battery with a damaged pouch should not be
exposed to water
▪ Do not allow children to replace batteries without
adult supervision
▪ Keep batteries out of the reach of children. In case
of ingestion of a cell or battery, the person involved
should seek medical assistance promptly
▪ Equipment intended for use by children should
have battery compartments which are tamper-
proof
▪ Do not encapsulate and/or modify batteries
▪ Exhausted batteries should be immediately
removed from equipment and disposed of (see
section XIII)
▪ When discarding batteries with solder tags,
insulate the tags by wrapping them with tape, foil,
etc.
Storage
▪ Store unused batteries in their original packaging
and keep them away from metal objects which
may short circuit them.
▪ Storing unpackaged cells together could result in
cell shorting and heat build-up
▪ Store and display batteries in their original
packaging in well ventilated, dry and cool
conditions
▪ Avoid storing or display batteries in direct sun or in
places where they get exposed to rain
▪ The normal storage of Lithium-ion Polymer Battery
Pack is made at temperature between +10°C and
+25°C, never exceeding +30°C In this way the
maximum shelf-life (i.e. max. retention of cell
performances after storage periods) of Lithium-ion
Polymer Battery Pack is achieved
▪ Storage temperatures above room temperature
will increase the rate of self-discharge, reducing
the available capacity of the cell. Humidity above
95% R.H. and below 40% R.H. should also be
avoided for sustained periods, as these extremes
are detrimental to batteries
▪ Storing the cells at low temperature is also
suggested, but attention must be paid when
transferring the cells to warmer environments,
because of the possibility of having water
condensing on to the cells (risk of short circuits)
▪ Do not stack battery cartons on top of each other
exceeding a specified height. The height is clearly
dependent on the strength of the packaging. As for
general rule this height should not exceed 1.5 m
for cardboard packages or 3 m for wooden cases.
The above recommendations are equally valid for
storage conditions during prolonged transit. Thus,
batteries should be stored away from ship engines
and not left for long periods in unventilated metal
box cars (containers) during summer.
