equipment or cradle and stop using it. Otherwise, the problematic battery pack can develop acid
leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition.
• The use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those supplied or approved by
Given Imaging Ltd. as replacement parts for internal PillCam recorder components, may result in
increased emissions or decreased immunity of the PillCam Capsule Endoscopy System.
Cautions
• Do not use or subject the battery pack to intense sunlight or hot temperatures such as in a car in hot
weather. Otherwise, acid leakage, overheating and/or smoke emission can occur. Also, its guaranteed
performance will be lost and/or its service life will be shortened.
• The battery pack incorporates built-in safety devices. Do not use it in a location where static electricity
(greater than the manufacturer’s guarantee) may be present. Otherwise, the safety devices can be
damaged, possibly leading to acid leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition.
• The guaranteed recharging temperature range is 0°C to +45°C. A recharging operation outside this
temperature range can lead to acid leakage and/or overheating of the battery pack and may cause
damage to it.
• If acid leaking from the battery pack comes into contact with your skin or clothing, immediately wash
it away with running water. Otherwise, skin inflammation can occur.
• For recharging procedures, refer to Charging on page 66.
• If you find rust, a bad odor, overheating and/or other irregularities when using the battery pack for the
first time, return it to your supplier or vendor.
