Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling:
• Do not vibrate the battery excessively.
• Avoid short-circuiting the battery. Though short-circuit for little time will not influence
badly the battery, short-circuit for long time will lose the battery’s energy and bring
plenty of heat which will burn skin and cause fire or explosion indeed.
• The equipments of metal which are used for battery pack such as coin, metal
accouterments, metal worktable, metal strip, etc. are source of short-circuit.
• It should be provide with effective measures to prevent short-circuit during
transportation and storage.
• Do not disassemble and damage the battery.
• The battery should be transported with 10-50% charged states.
• Do not contact the battery with water.
