LITIUM-ION BATTERY INFORMATION
NOTE
For comprehensive information on the Lithium-Ion Battery, refer the corresponding service manual

• WARNING
  • Damaged Li-ion batteries have the potential to leak electrolyte so it’s important to wear proper personal protective equipment (PPE) (goggles, gloves, apron, etc ) during handling
• WARNING
  • If a lithium-ion battery fire occurs, use a carbon dioxide (CO2) (Class BC) or dry chemical (Class ABC) fire extinguisher Lithium-ion batteries have very little actual lithium metal in the battery; thus, a Class D fire extinguisher is not required

INTENDED USE

• Discharge/Operational application temperatures: 32° F – 104° F
• Charging application temperatures: 41° F – 104° F
• Humidity<ww 80%
•  The battery’s maximum operation altitude is up to 6500ft (2000m)

NOTE

• A high-rate recharging operation below 0°C may lead to battery damage, so the recommended char-ging temperature range is 41° F – 104° F

• The discharging temperature range can be used in more extreme temperature conditions as follows – 4° F – 131° F however, this isn’t the recommended range for optimal life which is identified above Also, the truck may not be rated for those extreme conditions or extended durations in a cold operating environment as that is truck and option dependent

• If used at low temperatures -4° F – 32° F, battery discharge capacity will be smaller compared with one in normal temperature conditions

• A battery used between 104° F – 131° F will accelerate the aging of the internal material which may shorten the service life of the battery, so is not recommended

BATTERY HANDLING
Improper handling can cause damage to batteries, which may lead to overheating, fires, or explosions Here are some tips for proper Li-ion battery handling:

• Remove batteries from devices that will not be used for an extended time
• Keep batteries away from electromagnetic sources
• Keep batteries intact
• Do not use batteries that show any signs of damage, they must be isolated
• Do not modify the battery in any way

LI-ION BATTERY STORAGE
Proper storage prevents damage to batteries and prolongs their life expectancy Follow these battery storage tips:

• Store in dry, well-ventilated areas
• Store in temperatures between 32º F and 104ºF
• Store away from direct sunlight and heat sources
• Keep terminals covered when the battery is not in use
• Prevent terminals from touching each other
• Store separately from other types of batteries
• Keep the battery charged and do not store it for an extended period with a low state of charge (SOC) < 20% It is recommended to maintain a charge level of 50% or greater
• For long-term storage, the Li battery must be recharged every 2-3 months regardless of the SOC level If a battery is stored longer than six months without charging, the cell may be damaged due to over-discharge This can cause the cell to bulge and break the battery enclosure

IMPORTANT:
Monitor battery condition when in use and storage

DAMAGED/LEAKING BATTERY HANDLING/CLEAN-UP
In case of a damaged/leaking battery, follow these steps:

• Put on personal protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles/safety glasses and lab coat
• Isolate and ventilate the area
• Keep an appropriate fire extinguisher within reach
• If batteries are showing evidence of overheating, use extreme care Gases can be toxic and flammable
• Disconnect the battery (if possible)
• Remove the battery from the equipment/device (if possible)
• Use inert, non-cellulose absorbents to clean up spilled electrolyte
• DO NOT use water to clean electrolyte leakage
• Place used absorbents and PPE in a sealed bag and contact your environmental/recycling or shipping company for proper disposal of the battery and absorbents
• DO NOT place damaged batteries in the regular trash or recycling containers
• For safe storage while awaiting proper disposal, place the battery in a container of sand or another chemically inert cushioning material like vermiculite
• Place the battery container away from combustibles
•  Contact the local fire department and ask for advice on how to proceed
