USER MANUAL
Make sure to review the user manual carefully prior to product use.
Neglecting to heed the following instructions can result in battery overheating, combustion,
explosion, damage and/or decline in performance and product life.
1. Do not allow water, seawater or moisture to enter or leak into the battery. If the safety mechanism within
the battery becomes oxidized, oxidized the battery may overcharge with abnormal electrical current
and/or voltage so that it may overheat, ignite and/or explode.
2. Do not place the battery near open flames or heating devices, such as stoves.
Exposure to excessive heat may cause damage to the resin case and/or insulating materials, thus causing
a short circuit within the battery that may result in battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.
3. Charge the battery only with the exclusive charger specified (optionally provided) by GoDEX.
The use of an incorrect charger may result in overheating. Combustion and/or explosion of the battery.
4. Charging the battery with a modified charger may result in overheating, combustion and/or
explosion of the battery by abnormal chemical reaction caused by incorrect polarity.
5. Do not directly connect the battery to an electrical power outlet not specified by GoDEX or an automobile’s
cigarette lighter jack. Doing so may result in overheating, combustion and/or explosion of the battery by
over-current and/or over-voltage.
6. Do not heat the battery or place it near a fire. Doing so may melt insulation materials, damage the safety
mechanism/equipment, and/or ignite the electrolytic solution. There is a potential risk of battery overheating,
combustion, and/or explosion.
7. Do not reverse the connection of (+) and (-) electrodes of the battery. Charging the battery in reverse polarity
may produce an undesired chemical reaction inside the battery cell, causing unexpected behavior during
discharging such as overheating, explosion, or fire.
8. Do not allow the battery’s (+) or (-) pole to come into contact with any metal. In addition, do not carry or
store the battery with metallic items, such as necklaces and hairpins.
Doing so may cause a short circuit of the battery generating an over-current. There is the potential risk to
overheat, ignite and/or explode the battery or overheat the metallic items, such as necklaces, hair pins etc.
9. Do not throw the battery or subject it to strong shock. If the safety mechanism in the battery is damaged,
the battery may be overcharged and, consequently, an adverse chemical reaction may be generated
in the battery. There is a potential risk of battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.
10. Do not pierce the battery with a pointed object, such as nail or awl, or strike with a heavy object, such as a
hammer, and take care not to step on the battery. There is a potential risk of battery overheating, combustion,
and/or explosion caused by an internal short circuit.
11. Do not solder the battery directly. Doing so may melt the insulating materials and/or damage the safety
mechanism or safety equipment, resulting in battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.
12. Do not disassemble and/or modify the battery. The battery contains safety equipment and a safety mechanism
to prevent danger. There is a potential risk of overheating, combustion, and/or explosion caused by disassembly.
13. Do not charge the battery near open flames and/or under direct sunlight. Charging the ambient temperature at
0℃ ~ 40℃. Because exposure to high temperatures triggers the operation of the safety mechanism, the battery
may not charge or may overcharge due to destruction of the safety mechanism. There is a potential risk of
overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.
14. Do not expose the battery to high temperatures over 60℃, and do not use or store it in a hot or humid place.
15. Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the equivalent type recommended by
the manufacturer.
16. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
17. Only use with designated power supply adapter model.
18. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
