Do not carry the battery pack with metal objects, as they may short  
the battery terminals.  
Danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced; replace  
only with the same type.  
iii  
Information concerning the battery pack:  
The battery pack includes ammable objects such as organic  
solvent. Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing  
ames or extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of  
damage to the battery. Please observe the following prohibitive  
matters.  
Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!  
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to  
avoid danger. If they suer serious damage, the battery may  
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Do not short-circuit the battery!  
Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such  
as a paper clip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in  
containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain-necklace or  
hairpins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive current will  
ow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst  
into ame. It will also cause metal objects to heat up.  
Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!  
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is  
damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate  
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Do not leave the battery near re, stoves, or other heat  
generators (areas reaching over 80°C)!  
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an  
internal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the battery  
may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Avoid immersing the battery in water or getting it wet by  
other means!  
If the battery becomes wet, wipe it owith a dry towel before use. If  
the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge  
at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction  
may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or  
burst into ame.  
iv  
Do not charge the battery near re or under direct sunlight!  
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge  
at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction  
may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or  
burst into ame.  
Use only the specied charger and observe charging  
requirements!  
If the battery is charged in unspecied conditions (under high  
temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or  
current over regulated value, or with a remodeled charger), it may  
overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an  
instrument, or step on it!  
This may break or deform the battery, causing a short-circuit. The  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Do not jar or throw the battery!  
An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke,  
rupture, and/or burst into ame. If the battery’s protection circuit  
is damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal current (or  
voltage), and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!  
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into  
ame.  
Do not solder directly onto the battery!  
If the insulator is melted or the gas release vent or safety function  
is damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or  
burst into ame.  
Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!  
When charging a reversed battery, an abnormal chemical reaction  
may occur. In some cases, an unexpected large amount of current  
may ow upon discharging. The battery may generate heat or  
smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
v
Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery!  
The battery pack has positive and negative poles. If the battery  
pack does not smoothly connect with a charger or operating  
equipment, do not force it; check the polarity of the battery. If the  
battery pack is reverse-connected to the charger, it will be reverse-  
charged and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Do not touch a ruptured and leaking battery!  
If the electrolyte liquid from the battery gets into your eyes, wash  
your eyes with fresh water as soon as possible, without rubbing  
your eyes. Go to the hospital immediately. If left untreated, it may  
cause eye-problems.  
Do not charge the battery for longer than the specied time!  
If the battery pack has not nished charging even after the  
regulated time has passed, stop it. The battery may generate heat  
or smoke, rupture, or burst into ame.  
Do not place the battery pack into a microwave or high  
pressure container!  
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into  
ame.  
Keep ruptured and leaking battery packs away from re!  
If the battery pack is leaking (or the battery emits a bad odor),  
immediately remove it from ammable areas. Electrolyte leaking  
from battery can easily catch on re and may cause the battery to  
generate smoke or burst into ame.  
Do not use an abnormal battery!  
If the battery pack emits a bad odor, appears to have dierent  
coloring, is deformed, or seems abnormal for any other reason,  
remove it from the charger or operating equipment and do not use
