the safety guidelines and instructions
may lead to electric shocks, fires and/or
serious injuries.
Keep all safety information and other
instructions in a safe place for future
reference.
Cells in lithium-ion battery packs are
sealed so as to be gas-tight and are
non-hazardous provided they are used
and handled in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
– Handle discharged batteries with
care. Battery packs represent a safe
ty hazard as they can cause a very
high short circuit current. Even if Li-
ion battery packs appear to be dis
charged, they are in fact never fully
discharged.
– Make sure that the battery pack is
not subjected to physical blows or
impacts. Impacts and penetrating ob
jects may damage the batteries. This
may lead to leakages, the generation
of heat or smoke, or cause the battery
pack to ignite or explode.
– Keep the unused battery pack away
from paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws and other small metal objects
which could bridge the contacts. A
short circuit between the battery con
tacts poses a risk of burns or fire
– Protect the battery pack from exces
sive heat or constant heat sources
such as sunlight or naked flames.
Fire and temperatures over 130 °C
may cause explosions.
