Note!
The following situations indicate damage.
•
Do not expose to direct sunlight:
Do not use the battery module in or expose it to direct sunlight. The
battery’s service life and performance declines with increasing temperature.
•
Static charging:
The battery module has a protective circuit. Do not use it in locations where a static charge
in excess of 100 V is generated. Heat, smoke, fire or an explosion may result if the protective circuit fails.
•
Charging at operating temperature:
Only charge the battery module in the specified temperature
range to prevent leaking, the development of heat or functional damage.
•
Leakage:
Rinse your clothing and skin with water without delay if you have come into contact with the elec-
trolyte. Skin irritation may result.
•
Long-term storage:
The battery cell is in the shut-down mode when it is delivered, to protect it against
deep discharge. Disconnect the connection from the energy storage unit. Charge the battery cell before first
use if it has been stored for more than six months.
•
Storage location:
Do not store the battery module in locations in which water vapour, oil vapour, smoke,
dust, salt, corrosive materials, sulphides, explosive/combustible gases or chemicals are to be found. Similarly,
do not store it in locations that are exposed to permanent vibration or mechanical shocks. Protect the battery
module against liquids.
•
Voltage difference:
Ensure that the voltage difference between battery modules connected in a parallel
circuit is no more than 1 V.
•
Mounting orientation:
Always position the side with the connection terminals on the top.
