metallic object such as a coin, clip,
or pen causes direct connection of
the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminals of the battery. (These
look like metal strips on the
battery.) This might happen, for

battery in your pocket or purse.
Short-circuiting the terminals may
damage the battery or the
connecting object.
Disposal. Do not dispose of

Proper charging. Unplug the
charger from the electrical plug and
the device when not in use. Do not
leave a fully charged battery
connected to a charger, since
overcharging may shorten its
lifetime. If left unused, a fully
charged battery will lose its charge
over time.
Avoid extreme temperatures.
Always try to keep the battery
between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and
77°F). Extreme temperatures
reduce the capacity and lifetime of
the battery. A device with a hot or
cold battery may not work
temporarily. Battery performance
is particularly limited in
temperatures well below freezing.
Do not short-circuit. Accidental
short-circuiting can occur when a
