Matters prohibited when handling the battery pack
■Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack, because it incorporates a safety mechanism and protective device for
preventing danger. Damaging such mechanism or device could cause heat or smoke generation from or explosion or
ignition of the battery pack.
■Do not connect the positive electrode to the negative electrode using metal such as wire. Also do not carry or store this
product with metal goods such as necklaces or hairpins. Failure to do so could short-circuit the battery pack and
generate an excessive amount of electricity, causing heat or smoke generation, explosion or ignition of the battery pack,
as well as heat generation of metal goods such as necklaces and hairpins.
■Do not put the battery pack in open flame or heat it, or it could melt insulators, damage the gas blowdown valve or the
safety mechanism, or ignite the electrolyte solution, causing heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■Do not use or install the battery pack in hot places (80°C or higher) such as by open flame or a heater. If the resin
separator is damaged by the heat, the battery pack may be short-circuited internally, causing heat or smoke generation,
explosion or ignition.
■Do not soak the battery pack in or make it wet with water or seawater. The protective device incorporated in the battery
pack could cause heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition of the battery pack.
■Do not recharge the battery pack by open flame or in the hot sun. If the battery pack becomes hot, the protective device
for preventing danger is activated to stop recharging or the protective device may break to recharge the battery pack at
an abnormal current or voltage, causing heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition due to abnormal chemical
reaction inside the battery pack.
■Recharging the battery pack under any condition other than the specified ones (such as at higher temperature, voltage,
or current than the specified ones, or with a modified recharging cradle). In addition, the battery pack is recharged with
abnormal current, leading to abnormal chemical reaction inside it which could cause heat or smoke generation,
explosion, or ignition.
Note: Working temperature and humidity ranges of the recharging cradle: 0 to 40°C / 45 to 85%RH
■Do not drive a nail into, hammer, or step upon the battery pack, or it may be disrupted or deformed to be short-circuited
internally, causing heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■Do not give a strong impact to or throw the battery pack, or it could cause li uid leakage, heat or smoke generation,
explosion, or ignition. In addition, if the protective device incorporated in the battery pack is broken, the battery pack may
be recharged with abnormal current or voltage, leading to abnormal chemical reaction inside the battery pack which
could cause heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■Do not use a battery pack with an external surface that is damaged or an external appearance that is significantly
changed, or it could cause heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■Do not solder the battery pack directly, or the insulator may melt from the heat or the gas blowdown valve or the safety
mechanism may be damaged, causing heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■Do not mix up the positive electrode and negative electrode. The battery may be recharged reversely to cause abnormal
chemical reaction inside the battery pack or may discharge unexpectedly abnormal current to cause heat or smoke
generation, explosion, or ignition.
■The orientation of the positive and negative electrodes of the battery pack is predetermined. If it is difficult to connect the
battery pack to a recharging cradle or e uipment, check the orientation of the positive and negative electrodes without
connecting forcefully. Reverse connection causes reverse recharging of the battery pack, causing abnormal chemical
reaction inside it which could lead to heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■Do not connect the battery pack to an electric outlet or in-vehicle power port socket, or the high voltage applied may
DANGER

generate an excessive amount of current which could cause heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition of the
battery pack.
■Do not use this battery pack for any devices other than the specified ones, or the performance or life of the battery pack
may be reduced or abnormal current may flow depending on the type of device, causing breakage, heat or smoke
generation, explosion, or ignition of the battery pack.
■If li uid leaked from the battery pack gets in the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water such as tap water without rubbing
it and seek medical treatment immediately. Any li uid left in the eyes could cause damage to the eyes.
■Do not mix primary batteries such as dry cells and batteries with different capacity, type, or brand, or excessive discharge
during use or excessive recharge may occur, causing abnormal chemical reaction inside the battery pack which could
lead to heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■If the recharge is not completed even after the predetermined recharge time, stop recharging. Failure to do so could
cause heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition of the battery pack.
■Do not put the battery pack in a microwave oven or high-pressure container. Sudden heat-up or loss of airtight condition
could cause heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■In the event of a li uid leakage or an unusual odor from the battery pack, immediately move it away from fire. The
electrolytic solution leaked from the battery pack may catch fire, causing heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition.
■In the event of any abnormality such as unusual odor, heat generation, discoloration, or deformation during use,
recharge, or storage of the battery pack, remove the battery pack from the device or recharging cradle and discontinue
use. Continuing use could cause heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition of the battery pack.
■Do not use or leave the battery pack in hot places such as under strong direct sunlight or in a car under the hot sun, or
it could cause li uid leakage or heat or smoke generation and also reduce the performance and life of the battery pack.
■Do not use the battery pack in places where static electricity (100 V or higher) is generated, because the battery pack
incorporates a protective device for preventing danger. Failure to do so could break the protective circuit, causing li uid
leakage from, heat or smoke generation, explosion, or ignition of the battery pack.
■The recharge temperature range of the battery pack is from 0°C to 40°C. Recharging the battery pack outside of this
temperature range could not only cause li uid leakage from, heat or smoke generation from, or breakage of the battery
pack, but also reduce the performance and life of the battery pack.
■Be sure to read the instruction manual or written instructions carefully before use. In addition, keep the manual at hand
after reading it and refer to it when needed.
■Be sure to inspect the battery before charging.
■If any abnormality such as rust, unusual odor or heat generation is observed when you use this product for the first time
after purchase, discontinue use and take it to the shop where it was purchased.
■Store the battery pack out of the reach of infants. In addition, during use, be sure that they do not remove the battery
pack from a recharging cradle or device in which it is used.
■If li uid leaked from the battery pack comes into contact with the skin or clothes, immediately rinse thoroughly with clean
water such as tap water to prevent skin irritation.
■Do not leave the radio plugged in the charger all the time.
The battery pack (lithium-ion battery) is recyclable.
In order to reuse rare metals, drop unneeded battery packs off to be recycled,
without disposing of them.
