INTRODUCTION

DANGER

Rechargeable Li-ion Battery

Liquid (electrolyte) leaking from the labeling system or rechargeable battery may indicate that the rechargeable battery is damaged. If the rechargeable battery leaks, immediately discontinue use of the labeling system, unplug the AC adapter, and isolate the labeling system by placing it in a bag.

Do not touch the electrolyte. If electrolyte gets in the eyes, do not rub them. Immediately rinse liberally with tap water or other clean water and seek the advice of a medical professional. If left alone, the electrolyte could cause eye damage. If electrolyte contacts your skin or clothing, immediately rinse them with water.

DO NOT put the rechargeable battery, or a labeling system with the rechargeable battery installed, into a microwave oven or a high pressure container.

DO NOT leave a drained rechargeable battery in the labeling system for a long period of time. This could shorten the life of the rechargeable battery or lead to an electrical short.

If the labeling system can only be used for a short period of time, even though the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the rechargeable battery may have reached the end of its service life. Replace the rechargeable battery with a new one. When removing and replacing the rechargeable battery, cover the terminals of the old rechargeable battery with tape to avoid creating a short in the battery.

DO NOT disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the rechargeable battery.

DO NOT dispose of the rechargeable battery in fire or intentionally overheat. This could cause the internal insulation to melt, gas to be emitted, or safety mechanisms to fail. Additionally, the electrolyte solution could catch fire. DO NOT puncture the rechargeable battery with any objects, subject it to severe shocks or throw it. Damage to the rechargeable battery's protection circuit could cause the rechargeable battery to be recharged at an abnormal current/voltage or cause an abnormal chemical reaction within the rechargeable battery.

DO NOT incinerate the rechargeable battery or dispose of it with household waste.
