12. Reverse use of polarity terminals
"Do not reverse charge or reverse connect.
The battery has polarity terminals. If the battery is connected to the charger with opposite
polarity terminals, it will cause combustion, smoke, rupture or fire.
The battery should only be charged using the charger supplied with the screwdriver.
13. Connect the battery to an electrical outlet
"Do not connect the battery to an electrical outlet or cigarette lighter socket.
14. Improper use for unspecified equipment.
"Do not use the battery for unspecified equipment.
If the battery is used for unspecified equipment, it will impair its performance and charge cycle.
15. Leakage.
"Do not touch a leaking battery with your bare hands.
If electrolyte fluid reaches your eyes, immediately wash them with fresh water without rubbing
them for at least 10 minutes. Then seek medical attention as soon as possible. Failure to treat
irritated eyes may result in visual impairment.
WARNINGS
1. Mixed use.
"Do not mix lithium ion batteries with other types of batteries.
Do not use Lithium Ion batteries with primary or secondary batteries of different power or design
to prevent the battery from over-discharging or over-charging during use. This may also cause
combustion, smoke, rupture or fire due to the abnormal chemical reaction in the cells.
2. Ingestion
"Keep the battery out of reach of children.
Keep the small battery out of the reach of children to avoid ingestion problems. If the battery is
swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
3. Charging time
"Do not continue charging beyond the specified time.
If the battery is not fully charged at the end of the specified time, stop charging. If the battery is
not fully charged at the end of the specified time, stop charging. There is a risk that the battery

4. Storage
"Do not store in a microwave or high pressure container.
Store batteries in a dry, cool and ventilated area.
5. Leaking.
"Do not use a leaking battery near a fire.
If liquid leaks from the battery (or if it smells bad), do not use it and move it immediately away
from any flammable object. Failure to follow these precautions will result in the electrolyte liquid
leaking from the battery reaching the fire and causing smoke, fire or rupture of the battery.
6. Rust, color change and deformation.
"Do not use a battery that looks abnormal.
