Lithium-Ion Battery Inspection
Upon device opening, we recommend that you visually inspect the battery for signs of damage.
Factors to consider when inspecting the battery include, but are not limited to:
• Evidence of leaking or venting
• Visible signs of physical or mechanical damage, such as:
▪ Expansion or swelling. In expanded or swollen batteries, the soft pouch
encasing the cell pulls away from the inner material and appears baggy, loose,
or puffy.
▪ Discoloration of the battery casing.
▪ Odor, smell, or visible corrosion. Leaked battery electrolyte smells like nail polish
remover (acetone)
▪ Dents along the battery cell edges or on the top surface.
▪ Surface scratches that have exposed the aluminum beneath the black coating
layer on the battery.
▪ Loose or damaged wires.
▪ Known misuse or abuse.
Any battery exhibiting the signs listed above must be replaced. Consult the Battery Replacement
section of this document for battery replacement instructions.
