RISKS FOR CHILDREN AND PEOPLE IN NEED OF CARE
The use of this device is not intended for people (including children) with

lack of knowledge unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their
safety or have been instructed on the use of the device.
Note: Some countries, states or regions have laws related to location-based

SAFETY ADVICE

large or heavy for small or injured pets. If you are unsure whether you can
use this device with your pet, we highly recommend consulting a pet doctor or
veterinarian.
BATTERY OPERATION
Your Tractive GPS tracker is operated by a rechargeable lithium-ion polymer
battery. Below you will find some advice on the use of rechargeable batteries:
– The battery of the Tractive GPS is replaceable and should only be replaced
with other Tractive GPS batteries. However, the built-in battery cell must not
be removed.
– Batteries may not be disassembled, thrown into fire or short-circuited.
– Do not carry or store the battery together with metal objects that may
short-circuit the positive and negative terminals of the battery.
– Never expose the Tractive GPS device to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire
or the like.
– Do not charge the battery near a heat source or in direct sunlight.
– Keep the battery away from water.
– Do not drive metal objects into the battery, hit it with a hammer, or damage
and crush it otherwise.
– If a battery leaks, avoid direct contact with the liquid and safely dispose
of the battery.
– Keep batteries away from children and pets to prevent them from being
swallowed. Swallowing may lead to burns, perforation of soft tissue, and
death. Severe burns can occur within 2h of ingestion. In case of ingestion of
a cell or battery, seek medical or vet assistance promptly.
– If the battery overheats or deforms during charging or use with the device,
immediately remove it from the device or charger and do not use it again.
– In case the battery shows any signs of wear (scratches, bitemarks, etc.),
dispose the battery and do not use it again.
– Only use the USB cable that came with your Tractive GPS device. The use of
other cables might overcharge the battery and can lead to fire or explosion.
Disregarding these instructions can cause damage and possibly even cause the
battery to explode.
DISPOSAL
Batteries are hazardous waste. For the correct disposal of batteries, appropriate containers are provided at the premises of commercial battery dealers as well as local council waste disposal facilities. If you want to dispose of your Tractive GPS device, follow the current local provisions at the time. Information may be obtained from the local council waste disposal facility.
