CAUTION!
Risk of explosion!
Do not open, re-charge or disassemble lithium batteries. Attempting to charge
lithium batteries will lead to overheating and can cause explosions.
Protect them from heat and fire and store them in a dry place.
Never short-circuit or operate lithium batteries with the polarities reversed. The
batteries are likely to overheat and explode. Avoid unintentional short circuiting
do not store batteries in metal containers and do not place them on metallic
surfaces. Escaping lithium is a health hazard.
Environment considerations
Recycle exhausted batteries. Dispose of batteries in an environmentally con-
scious manner in accordance with regulations issued by the local authorities.
