•Do not connect the battery directly to a power outlet or insert it into a cigarette lighter socket in a car. High voltage may cause excessive current flow, leakage of battery fluid, heat, bursting or fire.

•If a newly purchased battery exhibits rust, generates heat or seems abnormal in any other way, do not use it. Take it back to your Roland dealer.

•Be sure to fully deplete a battery before recharging it for the first time.

•Keep the battery out of reach of babies or small children. Ensure that babies or small children cannot remove a battery from the FBC-7 while it is being charged.

•Be sure to carefully instruct any person on the proper way of han- dling a battery.

•Never dispose of the battery in a fire. Never heat it. Doing so may melt the insulation, damage the gas release vents or protective devices, cause combustion through chemical reaction with gener- ated hydrogen, ejection of battery fluid, bursting or fire.

•Do not charge or use the battery with the positive (+) and nega- tive (–) terminals reversed, as this may drain the battery or cause abnormal chemical reactions. Under normal operation, this should be impossible, because the battery or cable can only be connected in one direction.

•Do not remove the outer tube from a battery or damage it.

•Do no strike or drop the battery. Strong impact can cause leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

•Never try to connect two batteries in parallel as this may cause leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

•Do not alter or remove protective mechanisms or other parts. Never disassemble the battery.

•The positive (+) terminal section of the battery is equipped with a gas release vent. Never deform this section or cover it. Do not obstruct the release of gas as this could result in leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

•Do not overcharge the battery by exceeding the predetermined charging period of the FBC-7 or indicator. Never recharge a bat- tery that is already fully charged. This could result in leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

•If the battery is not fully charged after the predetermined charg- ing period has elapsed, stop the charging process. Prolonged charging could result in leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

•If any fluid from a battery comes in contact with the eyes, flush the eyes immediately, washing them thoroughly with clean water from a tap or other source and consult a doctor. Strong alkaline fluid can damage the eyes and lead to permanent loss of eyesight.

•If skin or clothing comes in contact with any fluid from the bat- tery, wash the area immediately with clean water from a tap. Bat- tery fluid can cause skin damage.

•When a battery is no longer usable, dispose of it in accordance with all applicable local laws and regulations.

•If the battery leaks fluid, changes color or shape or changes in any other way, do not use it, otherwise it may cause heat generation, bursting or fire.

Strap holder precaution

•Never unscrew the strap holder rings to avoid damaging the FR-7/ FR-5’s plastic housing, which eventually compromises overall sta- bility and safety.
