Important Safeguards

Read these instructions carefully and retain them for future use. If this product is passed to a third party, then these instructions must be included.

◗Keep batteries out of the reach of children.

Especially keep batteries which are considered swallowable out of the reach of children. In case of ingestion of a cell or battery, seek medical assistance promptly.

◗   Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and –)

marked on the battery and the product.

When batteries are inserted in reverse they may be short-circuited or charged. This may cause overheating, leakage, venting, rupture, explosion, fire and personal injury.

◗   Do not short‑circuit batteries.

When the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals of a battery are in electrical contact with each other, the battery becomes short-circuited. For example loose batteries in a pocket with keys or coins, can be short- circuited. This may result in venting, leakage, explosion, fire and personal injury.

◗   Do not charge batteries.

Attempting to charge a non-rechargeable (primary) battery may cause internal gas and/or heat generation resulting in leakage, venting, explosion, fire and personal injury.

◗   Do not force discharge batteries.

When batteries are force discharged by means of an external power source, the voltage of the battery will be forced below its design capability and gases will be generated inside the battery. This may result in leakage, venting, explosion, fire and personal injury.

◗   Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types or

brands.

When replacing batteries, replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the same brand and type. When batteries of different brand or type are used together or new and old batteries are used together, some batteries may be over-discharged / force discharged due to a difference of voltage or capacity. This may result in leakage, venting, explosion and possibly fire and may cause personal injury.

• Exhausted batteries should be immediately removed from product and properly When discharged batteries are kept in the product for a long time, electrolyte leakage may occur causing damage to the product and/or personal injury.

◗   Do not heat batteries.

When a battery is exposed to heat, leakage, venting, explosion and possibly fire may occur and cause personal injury.

◗   Do not weld or solder directly to batteries.

The heat from welding or soldering directly to a battery may cause leakage, venting, explosion and possibly fire and may cause personal injury.

◗   Do not dismantle batteries.

When a battery is dismantled or taken apart, contact with the components can be harmful and may cause personal injury or possibly fire.

◗   Do not deform batteries.

Batteries should not be crushed, punctured, or otherwise mutilated. Such abuse may result in leakage, venting, explosion, or possibly fire and cause personal injury.

◗   Do not dispose of batteries in fire.

When batteries are disposed of in fire, the heat build-up may cause explosion and/or fire and personal injury. Do not incinerate batteries except for approved disposal in a controlled incinerator.

◗   Do not allow children to replace batteries without adult supervision.

• Do not encapsulate and/or modify

Encapsulation or any other modification to a battery may result in blockage of the safety vent mechanism(s) and subsequent explosion and personal injury. Advice from the battery manufacturer should be sought if it is considered necessary to make any modification.

◗   Store unused batteries in their original packaging away from metal

objects. If already unpacked, do not mix or jumble batteries.

Unpacked batteries could get jumbled or get mixed with metal objects. This can cause battery short- circuiting which may result in leakage, venting, explosion and possibly fire and personal injury. One of the best ways to prevent this from happening is to store unused batteries in their original packaging.

◗   Remove batteries from product if it is not to be used for an extended

period of time unless it is for emergency purposes.

It is advantageous to remove batteries immediately from product which has ceased to function satisfactorily, or when a long period of disuse is anticipated (e.g. video cameras, photoflash, etc.). Although most lithium batteries on the market today are highly leak resistant, a battery that has been partially or completely exhausted may be more prone to leak than one that is unused.

◗   Batteries shall be stored in well‑ventilated, dry and cool conditions.

High temperature or high humidity may cause deterioration of the battery performance or surface corrosion.

Battery Disposal

Do not dispose of used batteries with your household waste. Take them to an appropriate disposal/collection site.
