b) Do not short-circuit a battery pack. Do not store
battery packs haphazardly in a box or drawer where they
may short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by
conductive materials.
When battery pack is not in use, keep
it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

(20 °C ± 5 °C).
m) When disposing of battery packs, keep battery packs
of different electrochemical systems separate from each
other.
n) Recharge only with the charger specified by Masport.
Do not use any charger other than that specifically
provided for use with the equipment.
A
