Prohibitions/Precautions on Battery Handling
Disassembly of battery pack and battery
Never disassemble the battery pack and battery. Disassembling the
battery pack may destroy internal circuits leading to inoperable safety
system for charging and discharging that generates heat, fire, or
destruction. Also, disassembling the battery may generate gasses that
bite the throat or cause the negative electrode to generate heat
leading to fire
Externally shorting battery pack and battery
Never short the battery pack and battery. External shorting may
generate heat or fire or cause destruction.
Throwing battery pack and battery into fire
Throwing the battery pack and battery may cause fire or destruction.
Throwing battery pack and battery into water
Throwing the battery pack into water may destroy internal circuits
leading to inoperable safety system for charging and discharging that
generates heat, fire, or destruction. Also, the battery generates oxygen
and hydrogen by electrolysis, and concurrently the sealing portion may
be corroded causing leaked liquid.
Soldering and heating up battery pack and battery
Do not solder a battery pack terminal. Soldering may cause melted
case by generated heat or destruction of internal circuits, leading to
inoperable safety system that generates heat, fire, or destruction.
Heating the battery up to 100
°
C or higher may damage resin parts
such as gaskets or the separator leading to leaked liquid, or internal
shorts may lead to generated heat, fire, or destruction.
Charging outside this device(outside dedicated adapter)
Charge by a current larger than specified, overcharge, or reverse
charge may occur. In this case, the inside of the battery may generate
gasses rapidly causing fire or explosion. Charging outside this device
may cause heat, fire, or destruction
Use for another purpose
Do not use the battery pack and battery for another device or purpose.
A difference of the specifications may damage the battery or the
device.
Deformation
If the applied pressure has deformed the battery pack and battery, the
sealing position may deform leading to leaked liquid, or internal shorts
may cause heat, fire, or destruction.
Exchange
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of
used batteries according to the instructions.
