metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. A short
circuit between the battery contacts can cause burns and fire.
f
Protect the battery from heat – no prolonged exposure to sunlight and fire –
(Tmax. = 60°C) as well as from water and humidity. There is a risk of explosion.
