transport the battery pack so that metal objects can
contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do
not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes,
product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws,
keys, coins, hand tools, etc. When transporting individual
battery packs, make sure that the battery terminals are
protected and well insulated from materials that could
contact them and cause a short circuit. NOTE: Li‑ion
battery packs should not be put in checked baggage
on airplanes and must be properly protected from short
circuits if they are in carry‑on baggage.
