Fatality hazards and risk of swallowing
lithium-ion batteries or placing them in
the ear or nose
(miniRITE R only)
Never swallow lithium-ion batteries nor
place them in the ear or the nose as this
may lead to serious injury or death in as
little as two hours. This can be due to
chemical burns, which can permanently
damage the nose or ear or potentially lead
to perforation of the inner organs. If a
lithium-ion battery is swallowed or placed
in the ear or nose, seek emergency medical
treatment immediately. Keep the batteries
in the original packaging until use. Dispose
of used batteries immediately.
