About Rechargeable Battery
Please follow the Instructions below for your safety. Failure to do so may
cause fire or damages to the product.
Do not use a damaged internal rechargeable battery or charger.
 Do not charge the rechargeable battery for longer than the specified time.
 Charge the battery fully when using the battery for the first time or when
using the battery after a few months of non-use.
 Charge the battery fully, use it until it is completely discharged, and re-
charge it again to ensure a long lifetime. Charging the battery after a short
use may shorten the lifetime of the battery. In this case, repeat charging the
battery completely and discharging it completely several times. Then you
can use the battery for a longer time.
Over-charging and over-discharging shortens the life time of the recharge-
able battery.
When the use time of a rechargeable battery is significantly shorter than a
new one, replace the battery with a new one.
Since a rechargeable battery is an expendable supply, the use time of a bat-
tery decreases over time.

battery (metallic parts) with any conductors such as a necklace, bracelet
etc. There is a danger of electric shock or fire.
