Battery Care and Maintenance
⚫
Do not allow the batteries to come into contact with any kind of liquid.
⚫
Do not drop the battery into the water.
⚫
Do not leave batteries out in the rain, or near a source of moisture. If the inside of the

battery in environments above 50°C can lead to a fire or explosion. The use of the
battery below -10°C can lead to permanent damage.
⚫
Never disassemble, or penetrate the batteries with sharp objects, otherwise, this may
result in the battery catching fire, or even lead to an explosion.
⚫
Electrolytes in the battery are highly corrosive. If any electrolytes make contact with
your skin or eyes, immediately wash the affected area with fresh running water for at
least 15 minutes, and then see a doctor immediately.
⚫
