Safety instructions
The product contains exchangeable or built-in lithium polymer or lithium ion cells
or batteries. The use of the word battery in the following always means all types.
Only the battery contents are potentially hazardous. As long as a battery is
undamaged and the seals remain intact, there is no danger.

deformations. A damaged battery poses a risk of personal injury. Handle a dam-
aged or leaking battery with extreme care. Immediately ventilate the area since
the battery releases harmful gases. If you come into contact with the battery fluid,
immediately remove all contaminated clothing. Irritation can occur if the battery
fluid comes in contact with your skin or eyes. Immediately and thoroughly rinse
your skin or eyes with water and seek medical aid.
For safe handling, follow these rules:
