BATTERY STORAGE AND HANDLING
WARNING:
Failure to read, understand, and
follow these instructions may result in over-
heating, chemical leakage, smoke emission,
fire, or other potentially harmful results.
Always follow proper battery handling and storage practices. Im-
proper handling and/or failure to abide by proper storage instruc-
tions may cause permanent damage to batteries, or degrade battery
charge holding capacity. Improper handling practices or failure to
comply with instructions may also put you at risk.
Lithium-Ion batteries, like the REDVOLT, REDVOLT XL, and RED
BRICK, self-discharge over time. When storing for long periods of
time, store batteries separately from the camera or charger and
remember to charge batteries to a capacity level of 50% to 80%. If
batteries will be stored for long periods of time, RED recommends
that you check the charge level at least once every six (6) months,
and recharge batteries to a capacity level of 50% to 80%.
When not in use, remove the battery from the camera or charger
and store the battery in a cool, dry place. Avoid non-insulated stor-
age areas with fluctuating temperatures, extreme hot temperatures
(such as inside a hot car), corrosive gas, and direct sunlight. The
optimal storage temperature for batteries is between –20°C to 20°C
(–4°F to 68°F).
WARNING:
Batteries stored in a depleted
state may self-discharge and lose the ability to
hold a charge.
WARNING:
DO NOT use the battery for pur-
poses other than those specificied.
WARNING:
If recharging operation fails to
complete even when a specified recharging
time has elapsed, immediately stop further re-
charging.
WARNING:
If recharging operation fails to
complete even when a specified recharging
time has elapsed, immediately stop further re-
charging.
DO NOT store batteries in a fully charged state for extended
periods of time.
DO NOT store batteries in a fully depleted state for extended
periods of time.
DO NOT store batteries in the camera, in a camera module, or
in a charger for extended periods of time.
DO NOT store batteries in extreme hot or cold temperatures.
DO NOT store batteries in direct sunlight.
Store the battery in a location where children cannot reach it.
DO NOT use third-party chargers with your RED batteries.
DO NOT disassemble or modify the battery.
DO NOT overcharge batteries. Overcharging may increase in-
ternal temperature beyond the recommended limits and cause
permanent damage to the battery.
DO NOT connect the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals to
a metal object such as a wire.
DO NOT transport or store the battery together with metal ob-
jects such as jewelry, hairpins, etc. as they may generate heat
if they come into contact with the battery.
DO NOT discard the battery into fire or heat.
DO NOT store, use, or recharge the battery near a heat source
such as a fire or a heater.
DO NOT allow the battery to get wet.
DO NOT pierce the battery with pointed or other sharp objects.
DO NOT step on, throw, or strike the battery with a hammer.
DO NOT use a battery that appears to be deformed or dam-
aged.
DO NOT directly solder the battery.
DO NOT put the battery into a microwave oven or a pressur-
ized container.
DO NOT use or subject the battery to intense sunlight or hot
temperatures such as in a car in hot weather.
The battery incorporates built-in safety devices. DO NOT use it
in a location where static electricity may be present.
DO NOT exceed the recharging temperature range of 0˚C to
40˚C (32˚F to 104˚F).
RED recommends that you only use RED chargers to recharge
RED batteries.
If the battery leaks or gives off a bad odor, discontinue use
immediately.
If the battery gives off an odor, generates heat, becomes dis-
colored or deformed, or in any way appears abnormal dur-
ing use, recharging or storage, immediately remove it from the
equipment or battery charger and discontinue use.
If electrolyte begins leaking from the battery and comes into
contact with your skin or clothing, immediately wash it away
with running water. Failure to do this may result in skin inflam-
mation.
If the battery leaks and the electrolyte reaches the eyes, do
not rub them. Instead, rinse the eyes with clean running water
and immediately seek medical attention. Failure to do this may
result in eye injury.
If you find discoloration, a bad odor due to leakage, overheat-
ing and/or other irregularities when using the battery for the
first time, contact your Bomb Squad Representative immedi-
ately.

SHIPPING DISCLAIMER
Unless you have been certified to ship dangerous goods, you must
work with a Dangerous Goods, Class 9-certified shipper to assist
you with a shipment that includes a RED BRICK (or other regulated
lithium ion batteries). Please note that applicable laws prohibit the
shipping of batteries that are physically damaged. We urge you to
look into the formal rules and regulations of shipping Class 9 Dan-
gerous Goods prior to preparing your shipment. For more informa-
tion on these regulations, please visit
