Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort
Power
■
Never allow a battery to become wet. A wet battery will overheat or
ignite causing rupture or fire, possibly resulting in death or serious
injury.
■
Never store a battery in an area of high humidity. This could cause a fire
or explosion possibly resulting in serious injury.
■
Never expose a battery to abnormal shock, vibration or pressure. Never
use a battery which has been exposed to abnormal shock even if the
appearance is normal. The battery's internal protective device could fail,
causing it to overheat or ignite resulting in caustic liquid leakage, or
explosion or fire, possibly resulting in death or serious injury.
■
Never subject a battery to heat, and never store it or use it near a heat
source. The battery could ignite or explode when heated or burned,
possibly resulting in death or serious injury. Subjecting a battery to heat
could also cause caustic liquid to leak. It can also cause failure,
malfunction, or loss of stored data.
■
Keep your product in room temperature and charge the battery every
half year if it is not used for long periods.
Use of correct battery
■
Always use the correct battery provided with your product or an
equivalent battery specified in the User’s Manual. Other batteries have
different voltage and terminal polarities. Use of non-conforming
batteries could generate smoke or cause fire or rupture, possibly
resulting in serious injury.
Battery safety
■
Never allow caustic electrolyte fluid leaked from the battery to contact
your eyes, body or clothing.
Use appropriate protective gloves when handling a damaged battery.
If caustic electrolyte fluid from the battery should contact your eyes,
immediately wash your eyes with large amounts of running water and
obtain prompt medical attention, to help prevent permanent eye
damage.
If electrolyte fluid should contact any part of your body, immediately
wash it off under running water to help prevent skin rashes.
If electrolyte fluid should contact your clothes, promptly remove them to
help prevent the electrolyte fluid from contacting your body, possibly
resulting in serious injury.
