7. Handling and Storage
maximum temperature is 6O0C(less than one month), otherwise the cells
and batteries maybe leakage. Besides, the cells and batteries shall be
protected from short circuit and protected from movement that could result
Handling
Storage
The cells and batteries manufactured from them may be highly charged
and are capable of high-energy discharge. Care should be taken to handle
cells properly to avoid shorting or misuse that will result in rapid
uncontrolled electrical, chemical, or heat energy release.
Do not short circuit. Do not dispart cell. Do not allow an exposed flame or
spark to come near the
tells. Do not mix new and used batteries. Keep
batteries in non conductive trays.
The cells and batteries shall not be stored in high temperature, the
I recommended currents and operating temperature range.
