Before transporting any lithium-ion battery,
check the current regulations on the
transport of dangerous goods. Comply with
these when preparing the packaging and
transport. Train authorised staff to dispatch
lithium-ion batteries.
NOTE
It is recommended that the original
packaging is kept for any subsequent
dispatch.
A lithium-ion battery is a special
product.
Special precautions should be taken
when:

lithium-ion battery
.
Transporting only the lithium battery
A class 9 danger label must be affixed
to the packaging for transport.
It is different if the battery is transported
on its own or in a truck. An example
of a label appears in this supplement.
Refer to the latest current regulations
before dispatch as the information might
have changed since this supplement
was written.
Special documents must be sent with
the battery. Refer to the applicable
standards or regulations.
NOTE
Recharge the lithium-ion battery before
transporting it taking account of the
transport mode (plane, boat, road).
