Datasheet

8.5 Do not mix batteries
When replacing batteries, replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the
same brand and type. When batteries of different brand or type are used together or new
and old batteries are used together, some batteries may be charged due to a difference of
cell voltage or overdischarged due to a difference of capacity. This may result in venting
and/or explosion.
8.6 Exhausted batteries should be immediately removed from equipment and disposed of.
When discharged batteries are kept in the equipment for a long time, electrolyte leakage
may occur causing damage to the equipment.
8.7 Do not overheat batteries
When a battery is overheated, electrolyte may be released and separators may deteriorate.
This may result in leakage, venting, explosion and possibly fire.
8.8 Do not weld or solder directly to batteries
The heat from welding or soldering directly to a battery may cause leakage, venting,
explosion, or fire.
8.9 Do not dismantle batteries
When a battery is dismantled, the components may cause personal injury or fire.
8.10 Do not deform batteries
Lithium batteries should not be crushed, punctured, or otherwise mutilated. Such abuse
may result in leakage, venting, explosion, or possibly fire.
8.11 Do not dispose of batteries in fire
When batteries are disposed of in fire, the heat build-up may cause explosion and/or fire.
Do not incinerate batteries except for approved disposal in a controlled incinerator.
8.12 A lithium battery with a damaged container should not be exposed to water
Lithium metal in contact with water may produce fire and/or hydrogen gas.
8.13 Keep batteries out of the reach of children
Especially keep batteries which are considered swallowable out of the reach of children. In case of
ingestion of a cell or battery, seek medical assistance promptly.
