7.3 Battery care
Transport and storage
ATTENTION
Lithium batteries, identified as being defec-
tive for safety reasons, or that have been
damaged, that have the potential of produc-
ing a dangerous evolution of heat, fire or
short circuit are forbidden for transport by air.
Pay attention to the permissible ambient conditions for
transport and storage (see
Specifications from
page 303).
To prevent short circuits and the associated heating,
lithium batteries must never be stored or transported un-
protected. Suitable measures against short circuits are
● inserting the batteries in original packaging, in the
system case of the instrument or in a plastic bag,
● taping the battery terminals.
Before transporting by air,
● make sure that the battery charge is below 30%,
● pay attention to the information on transport and stor-
age in the technical documentation of the specific
battery,
● follow the instructions of the shipping company for
packing and transport of lithium batteries.
