Disposing of Lithium Ion batteries incorrectly can allow moisture and oxygen to enter the
battery and oxidize the lithium components, causing a heat reaction. This can lead to fires or
explosions. Overheating, overcharging and shock from dropping or crushing can also cause
heat reactions to occur. Batteries must always be recycled. Do NOT throw your battery in
the garbage.
• Never short circuit the discharge terminals of the battery. A short circuit will damage the battery
and could cause a fire which may result in property damage, severe injury, or death. When
handling the battery, be aware of conductive materials that may short the battery terminals
such as coins, nails etc.
• Never crush or puncture the battery. A punctured or crushed battery could catch fire causing a
fire or explosion with could lead to property damage, severe injury, or death.
• Keep battery away from excessive heat (104°F or higher) or open flames. Avoid long-term
exposure to direct rays from the sun.
• Protect the battery from materials that may contaminate the charge port or the output port,
such as dirt and sand; the ports may be difficult or impossible to clean out.
• Never subject the battery to intense physical shock or severe vibrations.
