The safety electronics on damaged or faulty batteries
may fail. The residual voltage can cause a short
circuit. The batteries may self-ignite and explode.
Remove batteries with external damage from
service immediately and never charge them.
If the battery becomes deformed or begins to
smoke, keep at a safe distance, disconnect the
power supply at the socket, and notify the fire
service immediately.
Never extinguish damaged batteries with water or
allow them to come into contact with water.
If a battery is dropped or struck but shows no signs
of external damage, remove the battery from
service and observe it for at least 24 hours.
Faulty batteries are hazardous goods. Dispose of
faulty batteries properly and as quickly as possible.
Store in a dry place until disposal. Never store in
the vicinity of flammable substances.
Never open or repair the battery.
Risk of fire and explosion due to high temperatures
Excessively high temperatures damage the batteries.
The batteries may self-ignite and explode.
