Battery Safety Instruction and Warnings

Always keep a Class D (ABC-Powder) fire extinguisher near your battery charging/discharging

and storage area. The battery charging/discharging and storage area should be free from any

materials which can catch fire such as: wood tables, carpet, or gasoline containers. The ideal

surface for charging and storing Li-Po batteries is metal, concrete or ceramic.

Never puncture the Intel

Powerpack™ Battery cells. Punctured cells may cause fire.

Since delayed chemical reaction can occur, it is best to monitor the battery as a safety

precaution. Battery monitoring should occur in a safe area outside of any building or vehicle,

and away from any combustible material. Always charge Li-Po batteries in a fireproof location.

In the event of a crash, you must remove the battery for observation and place it in a safe open

area away from any combustible material for an appropriate period of time.

Never store or charge a battery inside of your car in extreme temperatures, since extreme

temperature could cause a fire.
