The battery incorporates built-in safety devices. To ensure
their proper function, do not disassemble or alter any parts of
the battery.
Do not short-circuit the battery by directly connecting any of
the exposed terminals with metal objects such as wire. Do not
transport or store the battery together with metal objects
such as necklaces, hair pins, etc.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire as they may explode or
release toxic materials and cause burns.
Do not use or leave the battery near a heat source such as a
fire or heater.
Do not immerse the battery in water.
When charging, use the charging device specifically designed
for the battery.
Do not pierce, strike, throw or step on the battery.
Do not directly solder the battery.
Do not connect the battery to an electrical outlet, vehicle cig-
arette lighter, etc.
Do not put battery into a microwave oven or pressurized con-
tainer.
Immediately remove the battery from the device or charger
and stop use if the battery gives off an odour, generates heat,
becomes discoloured or deformed, or in any way appears
abnormal during use.
Do not continue charging the battery if it does not recharge
within the specified charge time.
The battery may burst or ignite if the battery leaks. Always
ensure that it is away from any exposed flames.
If leaking electrolyte sprays into your eyes, rinse them with
clean running water, and immediately seek medical attention.
Do not store the battery in extremely high temperatures (e.g.,
a vehicle, strong direct sunlight, etc.). This may cause the bat-
tery to overheat or ignite, and it may also reduce the perform-
ance and service life of the battery.
Do not use in areas where static electricity is greater than
what the manufacturer guarantees.
