DISCLAIMER AND WARNING

DISCLAIMER AND WARNING

Battery Safety Guidelines

1. Prevent the batteries from coming into contact with any kind of liquid. Do not leave batteries out in the 
rain or near a source of moisture. Do not drop the batteries into water. If the inside of the battery comes in 
contact with water, chemical decomposition may occur, potentially resulting in the battery catching on fire, 
and may even lead to an explosion.
2. If the battery falls into water with the stabilizer during use, take it out immediately and put it in a safe and 
open area. Maintain a safe distance from the battery until it is completly dry. Never use the battery again, and 
dispose of the battery properly as described in the Battery Disposal section below.
3. If the battery catches fire, use water, water spray, sand, fire blanket, dry powder, or carbon dioxide fire 
extinguisher immediately to put out the fire. Please extinct the fire by applying the methods recommended 
above according to the actual situation.
4. Never use non-EVO Gimbals batteries. If replacement or backup is needed, please purchase new batteries 
from EVO Gimbals' official website or authorized channels. EVO Gimbals takes no responsibility for any 
damage caused by non-EVO Gimbals batteries.
5. Never use or charge swollen, leaky, or damaged batteries. Never use or charge if the battery smells, or 
overheats (exceeding maximum temperature of 160°F / 71°C). If your batteries are abnormal, contact EVO 
Gimbals for further assistance.
6. The battery should be used within the temperature range from -10° C to 50° C. Use the battery in 
environments above 50° C can lead to a fire or explosion. Use of battery below - 10° C can lead to serious 
battery damage.
7. Do not use the battery in strong electrostatic or electromagnetic environments. Otherwise, the battery 
protection board may malfunction.
8. Do not disassemble or use any sharp object to puncture the battery in any way. Otherwise, the battery 
may leak, catch fire or explode.
9. Do not mechanically strike, crush, or throw the battery. Do not place heavy objects on the battery or 
charger.
10. Electrolytes inside the battery are highly corrosive. In case of accidental contact of any electrolytes with 
your skin or eyes, rinse immediately with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical advice as soon as 
possible.
11. Do not use the battery if it has been involved in a crash or heavy impact.
12. Do not heat the battery and never put the battery in a microwave oven or in a pressurized container.
