Battery Safety Instructions

• If the battery is not fully charged within the specified time, stop charging. Otherwise, the battery could become hot, emit smoke, rupture, or catch fire.
28
• Do not place the product in a microwave oven or high-pressure container. Otherwise, the battery could become hot, emit smoke, rupture, or catch fire.
• If battery acid gets into your eyes or on your skin, immediately rinse the affected area thoroughly with water and seek medical treatment. Otherwise, permanent eye damage could result.
• If liquid leaks from the product (or the product has a bad odor), move the product away from flammable objects. Otherwise, electrolyte leaked from the battery will catch fire or cause smoke or flame.
• Do not drop or throw the product or subject it to strong shocks. Otherwise, the battery could leak or the protection circuit in the battery could be damaged.
• Do not leave the battery in a hot location such as near a fire or a heater. Otherwise, the plastic separator could melt and the individual cells could short-circuit and the battery could become hot, emit smoke, rupture, or catch fire.
• Do not charge the battery with devices other than the specified product. Otherwise, the performance and life of the battery could decrease or device damage can occur.
• Do not charge the battery near an open flame or in very hot locations. If the protection circuit in the battery is activated, you will not be able to charge the battery. If the protection circuit is damaged, the battery could become hot, emit smoke, rupture, or catch fire.
• Do not reverse the polarity of the external battery connections (terminals) and do not forcefully connect the battery to the charger or product even if the battery cannot be connected easily. Be sure to confirm the polarity of the battery when connecting it. If the battery is connected incorrectly during charging, the battery will be reverse-charged and an abnormal chemical reaction could occur or the battery could become hot, emit smoke, rupture, or catch fire.
• Do not use the product if it is leaking or damaged in any way.
• Do not leave the product in a vehicle. Otherwise, the battery could overheat.
• Do not handle the battery with wet hands or touch the battery terminals.
• Do not place, store, or charge the battery near water, heat sources, metal objects or in locations subject to shocks, vibrations, condensation, high temperature or humidity.
• Do not incinerate, heat, puncture, strike, step on, or insert an object into any openings in the battery.
• Do not disassemble, modify, or remove the outside case on the battery.
• If the battery overheats, or becomes discolored or deformed, remove the battery from the product and do not use it.
• Do not connect the battery to an electrical outlet or to a car cigarette lighter socket.
• Do not solder any item onto the battery.
