R
DANGER! DO NOT
hammer or otherwise impact the
battery. Do not use the battery if it has been severely im-
pacted or dropped, or if the battery has been subjected to
heavy pressure. Battery damage may not be visible on the
outside of the case. Even if the surface of the battery does
not show cracks or any other damage, the cells inside the
battery may rupture or catch fi re.
•
R
DANGER! NEVER
use or leave battery pack in areas
with temperatures above +60˚C (+140˚F). High tempera-
ture buildup in the battery, such as could occur near fires
or stoves, inside a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight
may cause the battery to rupture or catch fire. Excessive
temperatures may also degrade battery performance or
shorten battery life.

R
DANGER! DO NOT
expose the battery to rain, snow,
seawater, or any other liquids. Do not charge or use a wet
battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before
using.

DANGER! NEVER
incinerate a used battery pack since
internal battery gas may cause it to rupture, or may cause
an explosion.
•
R
DANGER! NEVER
solder the battery terminals, or

modify the battery pack. This may cause heat gen-
eration, and the battery may burst, emit smoke or catch
fi re.

Misuse can also cause damage to the battery or degra-
dation of battery performance.
