7. Handling and Storage
Handling
Do not crush, pierce, short (+) and (-) battery terminals with conductive
(i.e. metal) goods. Do not directly heat o
r solder. Do not throw into fire.
Do not mix batteries of different types a nd brands. Do not mix new and u sed
batterie
s. Keep batteries in non conductive (i.e. plastic) trays.
Storage
Store in a cool (prefera bly belo w 3 0°C) and venti lated a rea, a way from
moistu
re, sources of heat, open flames, food and drink.
Keep adequate clearance between walls and batteries.
Temperature above 100°C may result in battery leaka
ge and rupture.
Since short circuit can cause b urn, l eakage an d ru pture ha zard, keep
batterie
s in original packaging until use and do not jumble them.
