Do not disassemble, open, crush,
bend, deform, puncture, shred, or submerge
the battery or mobile device. Avoid dropping

objects. Contact with metal objects (such as
jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could complete
an electrical circuit (short circuit), causing the
battery to become very hot, which could
cause damage or injury.
