losing performance.
If an extreme decline in the running time of the battery is noticed, the battery is reaching the end of
its usable life. It is recommended to replace the old battery with a new one.

• Do not throw the battery pack into a fire, place it near a flame or heating device, or use, charge
or leave it in a hot environment (under direct sunlight, in a car, etc.). There is a risk of heat gener-
ation, smoke emission, explosion, fire, or battery acid leakage.
• Do not use a battery pack that has been dropped or subjected to a shock in some other way.
There is a risk of heat generation, smoke emission, explosion, fire, or battery acid leakage.

Do not put the battery pack in a bag with a metal object such as a key. There is a risk of heat
generation, smoke emission, explosion, fire, or battery acid leakage.
• If the battery acid gets into contact with the eyes, wash eyes immediately with water and consult
a doctor. Leaving your eyes untreated could result in blindness.
