■ Battery Safety Precautions

Make sure to review the user manual carefully prior to product use.

Neglecting to heed the following instructions can result in battery overheating, combustion,
explosion, damage and/or decline in performance and product life.

Danger

1. Do not allow water, seawater or moisture to enter or leak into the battery. If the safety
mechanism within the battery becomes oxidized, the battery may overcharge with
abnormal electrical current and/or voltage so that it may overheat, ignite and/or explode.

2. Do not place the battery near open flames or heating devices, such as stoves.
Exposure to excessive heat may cause damage to the resin case and/or insulating
materials, thus causing a short circuit within the battery that may result in battery
overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.

3. Charge the battery only with the exclusive charger specified (optionally provided) by
BIXOLON. The use of an incorrect charger may result in overheating, combustion
and/or explosion of the battery.

4. Charging the battery with a modified charger may result in overheating, combustion
and/or explosion of the battery by abnormal chemical reaction caused by incorrect
polarity.

5. Do not directly connect the battery to an electrical power outlet not specified by
BIXOLON or an automobile’s cigarette lighter jack. Doing so may result in overheating,
combustion and/or explosion of the battery by over-current and/or over-voltage.

6. Do not heat the battery or place it near a fire. Doing so may melt insulation materials,
damage the safety mechanism/equipment, and/or ignite the electrolytic solution. There
is a potential risk of battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.

7. Do not reverse the connection of (+) and (-) electrodes of the battery. Charging the
battery in reverse polarity may produce an undesired chemical reaction inside the
battery cell, causing unexpected behavior during discharging such as overheating,
explosion, or fire.

8. Do not allow the battery’s (+) or (-) pole to come into contact with any metal. In addition,
do not carry or store the battery with metallic items, such as necklaces and hairpins.
Doing so may cause a short circuit of the battery generating an over-current. There is
the potential risk to overheat, ignite and/or explode the battery or overheat the metallic
items, such as necklaces, hair pins etc.

9. Do not throw the battery or subject it to strong shock. If the safety mechanism in the
battery is damaged, the battery may be overcharged and, consequently, an adverse
chemical reaction may be generated in the battery. There is a potential risk of battery
overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.

10. Do not pierce the battery with a pointed object, such as nail or awl, or strike with a

heavy object, such as a hammer, and take care not to step on the battery. There is a
potential risk of battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion caused by an
internal short circuit.

11. Do not solder the battery directly. Doing so may melt the insulating materials and/or

damage the safety mechanism or safety equipment, resulting in battery overheating,
combustion, and/or explosion.

12. Do not disassemble and/or modify the battery. The battery contains safety equipment

and a safety mechanism to prevent danger. There is a potential risk of overheating,
combustion, and/or explosion caused by disassembly.

13. Do not charge the battery near open flames and/or under direct sunlight. Because
exposure to high temperatures triggers the operation of the safety mechanism, the
battery may not charge or may overcharge due to destruction of the safety mechanism.
There is a potential risk of overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.

14. Do not expose the battery to high temperatures over 60 oC, and do not use or store it

in a hot or humid place.

15. Do not use the battery if it is damaged or the exterior is deformed due to external

shock or if it is swollen.

Warning

1. Do not place the battery within the reach of small children to prevent any swallowing
accidents. If a small child has swallowed the battery, consult a physician immediately.

2. Do not place the battery in a microwave oven and/or high voltage appliance. Doing so
can cause rapid overheating and/or destruction of the sealing, resulting in battery
overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.

3. Do not combine and use any battery of different capacity and/or type with the primary
battery. Doing so can cause excessive electrical discharge during use or excessive
charging during charging, resulting in an abnormal chemical reaction within the battery
that can cause battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.

4. If during battery usage, storage, or charging, a strange odor or conditions differing from
the normal, such as overheating, color changes, warping, etc., are detected, remove
the battery from the product or charger and discontinue use. Continued use may
cause battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.

5. When recharging, if the battery is not charged after the normal fixed charging time,
discontinue charging. Continued charging can result in battery overheating,
combustion, and/or explosion.

6. If the battery appears to be coated with condensation or emits a strange odor,
immediately place it far away from any heat source. The condensation may be
caused by a leak of electrolytic solution that can ignite to cause battery combustion
and/or explosion.

7. If the battery is leaking electrolytic solution and any of the solution enters the eyes,
immediately wash out with clean water, and then consult a physician to receive
treatment. Neglecting to do so can cause permanent eye injuries.

Caution

1. Do not use or leave the battery in a location exposed to high temperatures or intense
direct sunlight, such as within an automobile. Doing so can cause battery overheating
and/or combustion. In addition, battery performance and product life may be reduced.

2. The battery contains a safety mechanism to prevent danger. Do not use the battery in
a location that is prone to static electricity (above the amount covered by the
manufacturer’s product warranty) that can cause damage to this safety mechanism.
Damage to the safety mechanism can result in battery overheating, combustion, and/or
explosion.

3. The temperature ranges for battery usage are as follows. Any usage outside of these
ranges can result in battery overheating and/or damage. In addition, battery
performance and product life may be reduced.

- Charging: 0 ~ 40 oC

- Product Usage: -20 ~ 60 oC

- Storage: -20 ~ 60 oC (30 days)

- Long-Term Storage: -20 ~ 40 oC (90 days)

4. Please review the exclusive charger manual carefully for charging instructions.

5. If you observe any abnormal symptom, such as strange smell and overheating, on first
use after purchasing the product, contact your local dealer immediately.

6. If a child must use the battery, the child’s parent or legal guardian should clearly explain
the instructions from the user manual prior to use. In addition, the parent or legal
guardian should periodically confirm that usage is being conducted in accordance with
user manual instruction during use.

7. Store the battery in a location that is out of the reach of small children. During usage,
make sure to also place the charger and/or product out of the reach of small children.

8. If the battery is leaking electrolytic solution, and the solution comes in contact with the
skin or clothing, immediately wash thoroughly with clean water. Contact with skin can
result in skin disorders.

9. Make sure to review the user manual and precautions carefully prior to use.

In addition, after carefully reviewing the user manual and precautions, place them in a
secure location for future reference when needed.

10. There is a risk of explosion when replacing with an incorrect battery. Only exchange it
for another one of the same or equivalent model specified by BIXOLON. Insulate the
used battery by attaching insulation tape to its port, and then dispose of the battery
according to local regulations.
