Baery Safety
Baery Transportaon
Rechargeable lithium baeries are subject to special regulaon by U.S. and
Internaonal laws, parcularly regarding transportaon on passenger aircra.
However, individual baeries installed in consumer electronics are not restricted,
provided there are only the correct numbers and types of baeries as may be needed
to operate the electronic equipment.
Your Tempest Wireless Intercom System includes rechargeable lithium-polymer baeries that power the BeltStaons. To
ensure that there is no violaon of U.S. or Internaonal laws, and to ensure your own safety, always:
• Transport rechargeable lithium baeries installed in the equipment they are intended to power.
• Transport spare baeries in a padded case, separated from one another.
• Never transport your rechargeable lithium baeries bundled together.
• Never transport more than 12 lithium baeries in a single package.
Lithium-polymer baeries include a chemistry that is intended to overcome the dangers associated with lithium ion
baeries. In addion, the baeries that accompany your Tempest Wireless system include protecve circuits to further
reduce the possibility of a dangerous reacon associated with charging or discharging beyond safe limits. With reasonable
care you can expect many years of safe and reliable power from your baeries.
Tempest baeries are not subject to transport regulaons of dangerous goods because they fulll the following regulatory
provisions:
» ADR 188
» IATA A45
» IMDG 188
Baery Storage
Long-term storage of baeries at maximum charge can result in permanent loss of capacity.
For long term storage of baeries, charge/discharge the baeries to approximately 60% of capacity. Baeries stored for
longer than one year should be recharged to 60% annually.
Trickle charging is not recommended due to the very low self discharge rate of the baeries.
As with all baeries:
• Do not burn.
• Do not expose baeries to excessive heat such as sunshine, re or other heat sources.
• CAUTION – Danger of explosion if baery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
• Properly dispose of used baeries promptly.
• Keep away from children.
