Dangers of faulty or scrapped batteries
Please keep a close eye on the battery condi-
tion when using or storing batteries. If you no-
tice any broken batteries, electrolyte leakage,
abnormal swelling or pungent smells caused
by transportation or vibration, please stop us-
ing the battery immediately and keep a dis-
tance of at least 5 metres from the relevant
batteries. Please dispose of damaged batter-
ies properly and contact the authorised serv-
ice to recycle it.
For large batteries with an inner/outer casing
structure, please put the battery in an outdoor
environment for at least 5 days. Contact the
authorised service to recycle it.
WARNING
1. Do not store batteries for long periods of time.
2. Batteries in storage must not bear any loads, be
crushed or in contact with each other.
3. Do not put batteries in warehouses for goods or
near inflammable or explosive items.
4. Do not pile up faulty or old batteries.
Transportation
Before transporting any lithium-ion battery,
check the current regulations on the transport
of dangerous goods. Comply with these when
preparing the packaging and transport. Train
authorised staff to dispatch lithium-ion batter-
ies.
NOTE
It is recommended that the original packaging
is kept for any subsequent dispatch. A lithium-
ion battery is a special product.
Special precautions should be taken when:
– Transporting a truck equipped with alithium-
ion battery.
– Transporting only the lithium battery.
A class 9 danger label must be affixed to the
packaging for transport.
It is different if the battery is transported on
its own or in a truck. An example of a la-
bel appears in this supplement(see figure be-
low). Refer to the latest current regulations
before dispatch as the information might have
changed since this supplement was written.
Special documents must be sent with the bat-
tery. Refer to the applicable standards or reg-
ulations.
