Information concerning the battery pack:
The battery pack includes fl ammable objects such as organic
solvent. Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture
producing fl ames or extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other
forms of damage to the battery. Please observe the following
prohibitive matters.
DANGER
•
Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid
danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may generate heat
or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
•
Do not short-circuit the battery!
Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such as a
paper clip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in containers
holding metal objects (such as wires, chain-necklaces or hairpins). If
the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive current will fl ow and the
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame. It will
also cause metal objects to heat up.
•
Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is
damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate heat
or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
•
Do not leave the battery near fi re, stoves, or other heat
generators (areas reaching over 80°C/ 176°F)!
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an
internal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the battery
may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
•
Do not immerse the battery in water or get it wet by other
means!
If the battery's protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge
at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction
may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or
burst into fl ame.
•
Do not charge the battery near fi re or under direct sunlight!
If the battery's protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge
at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction
may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or
burst into fl ame.
