9.4.8 Handling Batteries

This battery pack uses two primary lithium/

thionyl chloride batteries. Each battery contains

approximately 5 grams of lithium, for a total of 10

grams in each pack. Under normal conditions,

the battery materials are self-contained and are

not reactive as long as the batteries and the pack

integrity are maintained. Care should be taken to

prevent thermal, electrical or mechanical damage.

Protect the electrode of the battery pack to avoid

rapid electrical discharge. Discharged a battery may

lead to fluid leakage and excessive heat. Batteries

should be stored in a clean and dry area. For

maximum battery life, storage temperature should

not exceed 30°C.

WARNING

Handling the battery pack

The following precautions must be observed

in order to safely and effectively use a battery

pack. Improper use may lead to fluid leakage,

excessive heat, ignition, or explosion.

• Never charge it.

• Do not short-circuit it.

• Do not disassemble, transform, or modify it.

• Do not heat it or throw it into a fire.

• Do not soak it in fresh water or seawater.

CAUTION

Observe the following precautions for the safe

disposal of batteries.

• Do not incinerate the battery, and do not

expose it to a high temperature of 100°C

or more. This may lead to fluid leakage or

explosion.

• Dispose of the battery according to laws and

regulations.

Use the following dedicated parts for the battery

pack and batteries.
