the plastic cover has been torn or compromised in any way.
5) The battery should be used in temperatures from 0
℃
to 40
℃
. Use of the battery in environments above 50
℃
can lead to a fire or explosion. Use of battery below 0
℃
the life cycle of battery will be damaged.
6) DO NOT use the battery in strong electrostatic or electromagnetic environments. Otherwise,the battery control
board may malfunction and cause a serious accident during flight.
7) Never disassemble or pierce the battery in any way or the battery may leak, catch fire, or explode.
