Suitable extinguishing media: Use foam, dry powder or dry sand, CO

as appropriate.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: No information available.

(b) Special hazards arising from the chemical

Under fire conditions, batteries may burst and release hazardous decomposition products when exposed to a

fire situation. This could result in the release of flammable or corrosive materials. Hazardous combustion

products: CO, CO

, Metal oxides, Irritating fumes

Firefighters must wear fire resistant protective equipment and appropriate breathing apparatus. The staff must

equip with filtermask (full mask) or isolated breathing apparatus. The staff must wear the clothes which can

defense the fire and the toxic gas. Put out the fire in the upwind direction. Remove the container to the open

space as soon as possible. Spray water on the containers in the fireplace to keep them cool until finish

extinguishment.

6. Accidental release measures

(a) Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

If the battery material is released, remove personnel from area until fumes dissipate. Provide maximum

ventilation to clear out hazardous gases. The preferred response is to leave the area, dispose the case after the

batteries cool and vapors dissipate. Provide maximum ventilation. Avoid skin and eye contact or inhalation of

vapors.

(b) Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

If battery casing is dismantled, small amounts of electrolyte may leak. Collect all released material in a plastic

lined container. Dispose off according to the local law and rules. Avoid leached substances to get into the earth,

canalization or waters.

7. Handling and storage

(a) Precautions for safe handling

Always follow the warning information on the batteries and in the manuals of devices. Only use the

recommended battery types. Keep batteries away from children. For devices to be used by children, the battery

casing should be protected against unauthorized access. Unpacked batteries shall not lie about in bulk. In case of

battery change always replace all batteries by new ones of identical type and brand. Do not swallow batteries.

Do not throw batteries into water. Do not throw batteries into fire. Avoid deep discharge. Do not short-circuit

batteries Use recommended charging time and current.

(b) Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

If the 18650 Battery is subject to storage for such a long term as more than 3 months, it is recommended to

recharge the 18650 Battery periodically. Operating temperature: Charge:0℃~45℃. Discharge: -20℃~60℃ And

recommended at -20℃~45℃ for 1 month storage, at -20℃~35℃ for 3 months storage. The capacity recovery

rate in the delivery state (50% capacity of fully charged) after storage is assumed to be 80% or more. The voltage

for a long time storage shall be 3.7V~4.2V range. Do not storage 18650 Battery haphazardly in a box or drawer

where they may short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by other metal objects. Keep out of reach of
