LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The
VGX
uses a
12
volt Lithium-len rechargeable
battery
for
DC
operation.
Pl~ase
review
the
following safety instructions
before use. Failure
to
read and follow
the
instructions below
may result
in
fire, personal injury, and damage
to
property
if
charged
or
used improperly. Please
note
that
the
battery
must
be fully charged
prior
to
its
initial use.
Please observe
the
following precautions when using
or
handling
the
battery:
•
Do
not
dispose
in
fire
or
expose
to
high temperature.
•
Do
not
under
any
circumstances
insert
the
battery
with
the positive and negative poles reversed.
•
Do
not
directly connect
the
battery
to
power outlets
or
12
volt automotive ports.
•
Do
not
connect
the
positive terminal with
the
negative
terminal with metals such as wire, etc. Also,
do
not
store
or
carry
the
battery
with metal necklaces, etc.
•
Do
not
disassemble
or
modify
the
battery. The
battery
contains safety and protective devices which, if damaged, may
cause
the
battery
to
generate heat, explode
or
ignite.
•
Do
not
directly solder
the
battery.
• The
battery
contains a chemical liquid. If this liquid comes
in
contactwith
the
eyes, this may lead
to
loss of sight.
Without
rubbing
the
eyes, immediately ush
them
with clean
water
for
at
least
15
minutes and then consult a doctor.
•
Do
not
use
the
battery
if
it
shows signs of any leakage, a
change of color
or
shape,
or
any
other
changes
in
appearance,
an
unusual smell,
or
feels hot.
•
Do
not
wet
the
battery
or
place
it
in
water
or
sea water.
This may lead
to
the
battery
generating heat
or
rusting.
•
Do
not
remove
or
damage
the
coating tube. This makes
it
easy
for
the
battery
to
short-circuit and may cause leakage
or
heat generation.
•
At
all
times,
store
the
battery
out of reach of small children.
• If the
battery
is
rusted, generating heat,
or
shows any
other
abnormal signs
at
the
time
of purchase, take
it
to
the
point
of purchase without using it.
• When
not
using
the
battery,
or
not
using
the
unit
for
a
prolonged period, remove the
battery
from
the
unit and
store
it
in
a dry place between the temperatures of
-20
degrees
C
(4
degrees
F)
and
+35
degrees C
(95
degrees
F).
This
prevents leakage, rust, and decreased
battery
performance
and service life.
• Do
not
place
the
battery
in
direct
sunlight,
in
hot
cars,
in
front
of stoves
or
other
hot
places. This may lead
to
leakage
or
explosion, and may deteriorate the performance and life
expectancy.
• Only
the
battery
provided with
the
device,
or
a compatible re-
pl~cement
battery
purchased
from
Soundcast,
LLC
should be
used
in
this device.
Do
not
use this
battery
in
any
other
device.
•
When
charging
the
battery, use only
the
built-in charger
provided
in
this device. Do
not
attempt
to
charge
the
battery
by
any
other
means,
or
using any
other
device. Failure
to
do so
may cause
the
battery
to
become hot, rupture,
or
ignite and
cause serious injury.
• The
temperature
range over which
the
battery
can be
charged is
ooc
( +32°F)
to
+45°C
( + 113°F). The built-in
charger
in
this device will
not
charge
the
battery
outside of
this range. Charging the
battery
at
temperatures outside of
this range may cause the
battery
to
become
hot
or
to
break,
and may also harm
the
performance of
the
battery
or
reduce
its life expectancy.
• The
temperature
range over which
the
battery
can
be
used
is
-20°C (4°F)
to
+50°C
(+122°F). Use of
the
battery
outside
of this
temperature
range may damage
the
performance of
the
battery
or
may reduce its life expectancy.
