BATTERY: HANDLING GUIDELINES
Avoid short-circuiting the battery. A short circuit can generate high current, causing the battery to
overheat. This can lead to leakage of electrolyte gel, emission of harmful fumes, or even explosion.
Treat your battery carefully to prevent such issues.
Handle the battery gently to prevent mechanical shock. Actions such as dropping, hitting, or
bending can result in failure or a significantly reduced lifespan of the battery.
Never attempt to disassemble the batteries. This can cause an internal short circuit, which might
result in fire, explosion, or release of harmful fumes. If the electrolyte gel contacts skin or eyes,
immediately rinse the area with fresh water and seek medical attention.
Keep the battery away from heat or fire. Never try to burn or dispose of batteries in fire as this
could lead to an explosion.
Avoid exposing the battery to water or other liquids. Submerging or soaking batteries in any type
of liquid, such as water, seawater, or beverages, is not advised.
For battery replacement, please contact customer support. They are equipped to safely handle
and replace the battery.
Do not use a battery if it shows signs of damage. This can occur during shipping or due to rough
handling. Signs of damage include deformations, unusual odors, or leakage of electrolyte gel. If such
issues are observed, do not use the battery, and keep it away from fire.
Store the battery properly. It should be kept at room temperature and maintained at a charge of at
least 50%. For extended storage, charge the battery every six months to ensure it does not fall below
the 30% charge mark, prolonging its lifespan.
Batteries are chemical devices, and their performance will degrade over time. This is true
even if they are stored without being used. To maximize the life expectancy of your battery, ensure
it is charged properly and kept at the appropriate temperature. If the battery is unable to maintain a
charge for extended periods of time, it may be time to replace it.
Dispose of the battery in accordance with local regulations. Improper disposal can be harmful to
the environment.
In summary, treating your battery with care, keeping it properly charged, and replacing it when
necessary, can help ensure the safety and longevity of your device.
