WARNING
Lithium battery packs may get hot, explode, or ignite and cause
serious injury if they are misused electrically or mechanically.
Observe the following precautions when handling and using lithium-
ion batteries:
•
Do not short-circuit, recharge, or connect with false polarity.
•
Do not expose to temperatures beyond the specified temperature
range or incinerate the battery.
•
Do not crush, puncture, or disassemble the battery. The battery
contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may
cause the battery to generate heat, explode, or ignite.
•
Do not allow the battery to get wet.
•
In the event the battery leaks and the fluid gets into one’s eye, do
not rub the eye. Rinse well with water, and immediately seek
medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause
damage to the eye.
•
In case of fire, use water to put out the fire. There is no need for
special extinguishing media. An ambient fire can be fought with
class D extinguishing media.
•
Do not touch damaged batteries with bare hands. Only personnel
using suitable Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and tools
should handle damaged batteries.
