9.2 Battery Safety Guidelines
• The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or
chemicals. Particular care should be taken where the device is charged in a non-commercial
environment.
• Follow battery usage, storage, and c har ging guidelines found in the user’s guide.
• Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger temperatures must be between +32
F and +113 F (0 and +45 C).
• Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Use of an incompatible battery or charger may
present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions about the
compatibility of a battery or a charger, contact Chainway technical support.
• For devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the device shall only be connected to
products that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
• To enable authentication of an approved battery, as required by IEEE1725 clause 10.2.1, all
batteries will carry a Chainway hologram. Do not fit any battery without checking it has the
39
Chainway authenticatio n hol ogr am.
• Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred.
• Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on a hard surface could cause the
battery to overheat.
• Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic or conductive objects to contact the battery
terminals.
• Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or
expose to water or other liquids, or expose to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• Do not leave or store the equipment in or near areas that might get very hot, such as in a parked
vehicle or near a radiator or other heat source. Do not place battery into a microwave oven or
dryer.
• Battery usage by children should be supervised.
• Please follow local regulations to promptly dispose of used re-chargeable batteries.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Seek medical advice immediately if a battery has been swallowe d.
• In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. If
contact has been made, wash the affected area with large amounts of water and seek medical
advice.
• If you suspect damage to your equipment or battery, contact Chainway to arrange for inspect ion.
