Information concerning the battery pack:
The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic
solvent. Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing
flames or extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of
damage to the battery. Please observe the following prohibitive
matters.
DANGER
Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!
●
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid
danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not short-circuit the battery!
●
Do not join the + and - terminals using any form of metal (such as
a paper clip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in
containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain necklace or
hairpins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive current will
flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst
into flame. It will also cause metal objects to heat up.
Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!
●
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is
damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not leave the battery near fires, stoves, or other heat
●
generators (areas reaching over 80°C/ 176°F)!
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an
internal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the battery
may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Avoid immersing the battery in water or getting it wet by other
●
means!
If the battery becomes wet, wipe it off with a dry towel before use.
If the battery's protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge
at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction
may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or
burst into flame.
