Handling: Accidental short circuit for a few seconds will not seriously affect the battery. Prolonged short circuit will cause the battery to lose energy,
generate significant heat and can cause the safety release vent to open. Sources of short circuits include jumbled batteries in bulk containers, metal
jewelry, metal covered tables or metal belts used for assembly of batteries into devices. Damaging a lithium battery may result in an internal short
circuit.
The contents of an open battery, including a vented battery, when exposed to water, may result in a fire and/or explosion. Crushed
or damaged batteries may result in a fire.
If soldering or welding to the battery is required, consult your Energizer representative for proper precautions to prevent seal
damage or short circuit.
Charging: This battery is manufactured in a charged state. It is not designed for recharging. Recharging can cause battery leakage or, in
some cases, high pressure rupture. Inadvertent charging can occur if a battery is installed backwards.
Labeling: If the Energizer label or package warnings are not visible, it is important to provide a package and/or device label stating:
WARNING: Battery can explode or leak and cause burns if installed backwards, disassembled, charged, or exposed to water, fire or
high temperature.
Where accidental ingestion of small batteries is possible, the label should include:
WARNING: (1) Keep away from small children. If swallowed, promptly see doctor; have doctor phone [phone] collect.
(2) Battery can explode or leak and cause burns if installed backwards, disassembled, charged, or exposed to water, fire or high
temperature.
