■ Battery Safety Precautions Make sure you review the user manual carefully prior to product use.
Neglecting to follow the instructions may result in overheating of the battery, combustion,
explosion, damage and/or decline in performance and product life.
Danger
1. Do not allow liquids to enter or leak into the battery interior. If the safety mechanism
within the battery becomes burned out, charging of the battery may result in abnormal
electrical current flow and/or voltage that causes an abnormal chemical reaction, which
may then cause the battery to overheat, ignite, and/or explode.
2. Do not use or leave the battery in a location exposed to high temperatures. Excessive
heat exposure can cause damage to the resin case and/or insulating materials, thus
causing short circuits within the battery that may result in battery overheating,
combustion, and/or explosion.
3. When charging the battery, use the exclusive charger or follow the charging
requirements outlined by Zebra. Charging under conditions not included in such
requirements (higher temperature, higher voltage/larger electrical current, use of a
modified charger, etc.) can result in excessive battery charging and abnormal electrical
current flow and/or voltage that causes an abnormal chemical reaction, which may then
cause the battery to overheat, ignite, and/or explode.
4. The battery has clearly delineated plus and minus poles. When inserting the battery
into the charger and/or product, ensure that the battery is properly aligned. Reverse
insertion will cause reverse charging that can result in an abnormal chemical reaction,
which may then cause the battery to overheat, ignite, and/or explode.
5. Do not heat the battery or place it in a fire. Excessive heat can melt the insulating
materials and/or damage the safety mechanism, allowing the electrolytic solution to
ignite resulting in battery overheating, combustion, and/or explosion.
6. Do not use the battery in reverse (+) and (-) alignment. This will cause reverse
charging that can result in an abnormal chemical reaction. During use, unpredictable
electrical current abnormalities can arise, causing battery overheating, combustion,
and/or explosion.
7. Do not allow the battery’s (+) and (-) poles to come into contact with any metals. In
addition, do not carry or store the battery with metal items. Resulting short circuits
within the battery can cause excessive electrical current flow, resulting in battery
overheating, combustion, and/or explosion as well as potential overheating of the
adjacent metal items.
8. Do not subject the battery to heavy shock. If the safety mechanism within the battery
burns out, any charging of the battery can result in abnormal electrical current flow
and/or voltage that causes an abnormal chemical reaction, which may then cause the
battery to overheat, ignite, and/or explode.
