Safety Notes
relating to Lithium-Ion-Polymer batteries
These operating instructions for the battery
charger can only provide a global overview of
the methods of charging and handling
rechargeable Li-Poly batteries, and should
not be considered as a substitute for the
instructions provided by the battery manu-
facturer.
Please be sure to read the instructions and
information supplied by the battery manu-
facturer.
- Be sure to place the battery on a fireproof,
non-flammable surface for charging and
discharging, and
never
leave the pack on
charge unsupervised.
- Do not submerge the battery in water or
any other liquid, as this may cause damage
to the monitor module; this in turn could
cause the pack to be charged at an abnor-
mal current or voltage.
- Do not heat the battery, throw it into a fire
or place it in a microwave oven.
- Do not short-circuit the pack or charge it
with reverse polarity.
- Do not subject the battery to physical pres-
sure; do not deform or throw it.
- Do not solder directly to the battery.
- Do not modify or open the battery.
- Do not charge the battery to a voltage hig-
her than 4.2 (4.1) Volts per cell.
- Do not discharge the battery to a voltage
lower than 2.5 (2.4) Volts per cell.
- These batteries may only be charged using
a charger designed expressly for this pur-
pose. Never connect the battery directly to
a mains PSU.
- Never charge or discharge the battery in
direct sunshine, or close to a heater or fire,
as this might damage the monitor module.
- Do not use the battery in any location
which is subject to severe static dischar-
ges.
- Any of these errors may cause the bat-
tery to be damaged, explode or catch
fire.
- Keep the battery well out of the reach of
children.
- If electrolyte should escape, keep it well
away from fire. The substance is highly
inflammable and may burst into flames.
- Avoid the fluid electrolyte contacting your
eyes. If this should occur, rinse the
affected part immediately with plenty of
clean water before seeking medical atten-
tion.
- If the fluid electrolyte should contact your
clothes or any other object, immediately
wash it off using plenty of water.
- Be sure to read and observe the general
safety notes regarding battery charging.
These are included in the main operating
instructions for the charger.
