Safety Precautions

◼⬛ General cautions

⬛ Handling of DX Series

⬛ Handling of main battery (DX-BP6/BP3) and communication unit with built- in main battery (DX-BS6/BS3/BQ6/BQ3)

Observe the following precautions during use. Failure to do so may result in heat generation, smoke generation, fire, explosion, battery leakage, gas leakage, etc. of the main battery pack.

• Only use the specified battery.
• Do not charge, use, or store the main battery at locations of high temperature above the specified range—such as near fire, in a heated car, and under the scorching sun—or at locations of low temperature below the specified range.
• Do not put it into fire or subject to heat. If there is battery leakage or abnormal smell, immediately take it away from fire.
• Do not drop the main battery or subject it to strong pressure (such as by crushing, bending, deforming, making holes in, cutting, or throwing it).

Do not charge when conductive material is affixed to the charging/ communication contact. Clean this contact prior to charging.
