SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, BURST
HAZARD, OR INJURY TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY:
Lithium-ion batteries are small, compact and ideal for providing long-lasting power to
this unit. However, they must be used and charged properly. Improper use can result in
serious injury, fire, or death.
Lithium-ion batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition. Do not use
the product in the presence of an open flame.
Do not place this lithium-ion battery powered unit in fire or apply heat to it.
Do not subject this lithium-ion battery powered unit to strong impacts or shocks. The
battery in this unit contains safety and protection devices which, if damaged, may
cause the battery to generate heat, rupture or ignite.
Do not expose this lithium-ion battery powered unit to water or salt water, or allow
the battery to get wet.
Avoid storing this lithium-ion battery powered unit in the basement, bathroom or
other areas of the house that are or may become wet.
Do not leave this lithium-ion battery powered unit in direct sunlight, or use or store
the unit inside cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate
heat, rupture, or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of
performance and a shortened life expectancy.
Never charge this unit near heat or flammable objects.
NEVER THROW WATER ON A BURNING LI-ION BATTERY! If a lithium-ion
battery does catch on fire, it will burn even more violently if it comes in
contact with water or even moisture in the air. A fire extinguisher must be
used.
BATTERY CHARGING AND CAPACITY
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it before using it
for the first time.
When stored at room temperature with a full charge, Li-ion batteries will begin to
discharge from the time they are manufactured, even when unused. Deep discharges
also decrease their capacity.
Battery life can be extended by the following:
Charge battery to full capacity before storage.
Store this unit at temperatures between 5°C and 20°C (41°F and 68°F).
