LITHIUM-ION BATTERY PACK HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Danger
1. Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack. The battery pack is equipped with
built-in safety/protection features. Should these features be disabled, the battery
pack may leak corrosive chemicals, overheat, emit smoke, burst and/or ignite.
2. Do not connect the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals to a metal object such as a
wire. Do not transport or store the battery pack together with metal objects such as
jewellery, hairpins, etc. In such cases, short- circuiting or over-current flow may occur
causing the battery pack to leak, overheat, emit smoke, burst and/or ignite. Metal
objects such as wires, jewellery or hairpins may generate heat if they come into
contact with the battery.
3. Do not discard the battery pack into fire or heat since this may cause the insulation to
melt down and may also damage the gas release vents and other safety features
possibly leading to chemical leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or
ignition.
4. Do not use or leave the battery pack near a heat source such as a fire or a heater (>
80°C) or in a car. If the resin separators should become damaged due to
overheating, short-circuiting may occur inside the battery pack, possibly leading to
chemical leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition of the
battery pack.
5. Do not immerse the battery pack in fluids, water or seawater and do not allow it to
get wet. Otherwise, the protective features inside the battery may be damaged and
abnormal chemical reactions may occur, possibly leading to leakage, overheating,
smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition.
6. Do not recharge the battery pack near fire or in extremely hot environments.
Otherwise, hot temperatures may trigger its built-in protective features, inhibiting
recharging or damaging these built-in protective features, causing it to be charged
with an excessive current. As a result, abnormal chemical reactions may occur
internally, possibly leading to leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or
ignition.
7. To recharge the battery pack, use the battery charger specifically designed for the
device and observe the recharging conditions specified by the maker of the charger.
A recharging operation under non-conforming conditions may cause the battery pack
to become overcharged, or charged with an excessive current. Abnormal chemical
reactions may occur, possibly leading to electrolyte leakage, overheating, smoke
emission, bursting and/or ignition.
8. Do not pierce the battery pack with pointed or other sharp objects. Do not strike it
with a hammer, or step on it. Otherwise, the battery pack may become damaged and
deformed internal short-circuiting may occur, possibly leading to chemical leakage,
overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition.
9. Do not strike or throw the battery pack. An impact may cause leakage, overheating,
smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition. Moreover, if the protective features inside
become damaged, the resulting internally generated high current could lead to
abnormal chemical reactions, electrolyte leakage, overheating, smoke emission,
bursting and/or ignition.
10. Do not use an apparently damaged or deformed battery pack. Otherwise,
electrolyte leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition of the
battery pack may occur.
11. Do not directly solder the battery pack. Otherwise, heat may melt down its
insulation, damage its gas release vents or other safety features possibly leading to
leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition.
12. Do not reverse the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals. Otherwise, during
recharging, the battery pack will be reverse-charged, abnormal chemical reactions
