procedures.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is
completely worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire.
2.
A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may occur under
extreme usage or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure.
However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:
a.
Wash quickly with soap and water.
b.
Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c.
If battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a
minimum of 2 minutes
and seek immediate medical attention.
(medical notes: the liquid is 25-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.)

Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing
of the battery pack breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do
not recharge.
