IMPORTANT SAFTY PRECAUTIONS
<Handling of battery pack>
1. Do not burn the battery pack or throw it into a fire. Doing so can cause heat
generation, bursting and fire.
2. Do not place the battery pack
in microwave ovens and high-pressure
containers.
3. Do not let water or sea water wet or soak the
battery pack. Safety and
protective devices to prevent danger are built in the battery pack. If these
devices are damaged, excessive current flow can cause abnormal chemical
reaction in battery fluid, heat generation, bursting and fire.
4. Do not throw or impact the battery pack. Safety and protective devices to
prevent danger are built in the battery pack. If these devices are damaged,
excessive current flow can cause abnormal chemical reaction in battery fluid,
heat generation, bursting and fire.
5. Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike the battery pack with a
hammer, or step on the battery pack. Doing so can cause internal short circuit,
heat generation, bursting and fire.
6. Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack. Safety and protective devices
to prevent danger are built in the battery pack. If these devices are damaged,
excessive current flow can cause loss of control during charging or discharging
of the battery pack, heat generation, bursting and fire.
7. Make sure the polarities are correctly connected. Do not attempt to connect the
battery pack or other equipment when you cannot do. Reversed connections
can cause abnormal chemical reaction in battery fluid, heat generation,
bursting and fire.
8. Do not solder any lead wires directly to the battery pack. Do not directly
connect the positive and negative terminals with a conductive material such as
a wire. Do not carry or store the battery pack together with any personal
jewelry, hairpins or other Metallic objects. Doing so can cause an electrical
short circuit. Also excessive current flow can cause abnormal chemical reaction
in battery, heat generation, bursting and fire.
9. Only use a specified battery charger. Failure to do so can cause the battery to
be overcharged or excessive current flow can cause abnormal chemical
reaction in battery fluid, heat generation, bursting and fire.
10. Use the battery pack only for the application for which it was designed. Failure
to do so will result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy.
Also excessive current flow can cause loss of control during charging or
discharging of the
battery pack
heat generation, bursting and fire.
