DANGER
● To prevent electrolyte leakage, heat build-up, or bursting:
• Do not throw battery packs into fire or expose to any heat source.
• Do not immerse the battery pack in water or get it wet as it will cause damage
to the battery pack.
• Do not short the positive (+) or negative (–) terminal with a wire, chain, metallic
accessory or any other conductive material as it will cause damage to the
battery pack or a skin burn from overheat.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the battery pack as this may cause
overheating, fire or the electrolyte to burst.
• The battery pack has positive (+) and negative (–) electrodes. If you have
difficulty in connecting, check the orientation.
• Do not attempt to directly connect the battery pack in a wall outlet or a car
cigarette lighter socket.
●
If electrolyte gets into the eyes, do not rub. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water
and then call a doctor.
●
Do not attempt to modify the built-in battery charger in the printer. It should
only be used for charging the supplied battery pack. To prevent the battery
pack from bulging, heat build-up or bursting, only charge with the supplied
battery pack charger.
●
Charge the battery pack from the dedicated built-in charger and within the
specified charging time.
• Running the battery pack through repeated partial charge and drain cycles may
cause a gradual reduction of return power called “memory effect” that
shortens battery life.
●
Use the battery pack within the specified operating temperature range and
environmental conditions.
• Battery pack performance may deteriorate if used outside specified operating
conditions.
●
If the battery pack requires replacement, take it to your dealer for servicing.
• Replacing with a battery pack outside of the specified ratings may damage the
printer.
