WARNING
Do not discharge the battery using any device
except for the scanner. When the battery is used
in devices other than the designated product, it
may damage the battery or reduce its life expec-
tancy. If the device causes an abnormal current to
flow, it may cause the battery to become hot,
explode or ignite and cause serious injury.
Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode or
ignite and cause serious injury if exposed to abu-
sive conditions. Be sure to follow the safety warn-
ings that follow:
• Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat.
• Do not connect the positive terminal and negative
terminal of the battery pack to each other with any
metal object (such as wire).
• Do not carry or store the battery pack together
with metal objects.
WARNING
• Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it
with a hammer, step on it or otherwise subject it to
strong impacts or shocks.
• Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
• Do not expose the battery pack to liquids, or allow
the battery to get wet.
• Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts.
In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid
gets into your eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well
with water and immediately seek medical care. If
left untreated, the battery fluid could cause dam-
age to the eye.
