Danger

1.Never try to dispose of the battery pack by burning or expose it to a heating device such as a microwave oven. The battery pack could explode and cause bodily injury.

2.Never try to disassemble, repair or otherwise tamper with a battery pack. The battery pack will overheat and ignite. Leakage of caustic alkaline solution or other electrolytic substances will cause fire or injury, possibly resulting in death or serious injury.

3.Never shortcircuit the battery pack by contacting the terminals with a metal object. A shortcircuit can cause fire or otherwise damage the battery pack and possibly cause injury. To avoid accidental shortcircuit, always wrap the battery pack in plastic and cover the terminals with electrical tape when storing or disposing of the battery pack.

6.Use only the battery pack supplied with the computer or other device or a battery pack approved by the computer or device's manufacture. Battery packs have different voltages and terminal polarities. Use of an improper battery could cause smoke, fire or rupture of the battery pack.

7.Never subject a battery pack to heat, such as storage near a heat source. Exposure to heat can cause the battery pack to ignite, explode or leak caustic liquid and cause death or serious injury. It could also fail or malfunction causing data loss.

8.Never expose the battery pack to abnormal shock, vibration or pressure. The battery pack's internal protective device will fail, causing it to overheat, explode, ignite or leak caustic liquids possibly resulting in death or serious injury.
