Battery damaged during handling or transportation

After a week of normal charge/discharge experiment

c) The battery is very heavy. Please use proper method to move and lift the battery, so as to prevent any damage to human being or the battery terminal.
Severe damage to the battery may cause fire.

d) The battery connecting terminal shall not be subject to any force, such as the pulling force or twisting force of the cable, otherwise, the internal
connection of the battery may be damaged. Severe damage to the battery may cause fire.

e) The battery shall be installed and stored in a clean, cool and dry environment. Do not install the battery in a sealed battery chamber or a sealed room.
The battery room ventilation shall at least meet the requirement of EN50272-2001. Otherwise, battery bulging, fire or even human injury may be caused.

f) The battery shall be installed far away from the heating products (e.g. transformer), used or stored far away from any fire source, and shall not be burnt or
put into fire for heating. Otherwise, battery leakage, bulging, fire or explosion may be caused.

g) Do not directly connect any conductor between the positive and negative terminals of the battery. Remove the finger rings, watch, necklace, bracelet
and other metal items before operating the battery, and ensure that the tools (e.g., wrench) are covered with insulating material. Otherwise, battery burning,
human death/injury or explosion may be caused.

h) Do not disassemble, modify or demolish the battery. Otherwise, battery short circuit, liquid leakage or even human injury may be caused.

i) Clean the battery enclosure with the wringed wet cloth. To avoid any static or arcing, do not use dry cloth or duster to clean the battery. Do not use the
organic solvent (such as thinner, gasoline, volatile oil) to clean the battery. Otherwise, the battery enclosure may be cracked. In worst case, fire may be
caused.

j) The battery has diluted sulfuric acid. In normal use, the diluted sulfuric acid will be absorbed to the baffle and polar plate of the battery. However, if the
battery is damaged, the acid may leak from the battery. Therefore, personal protective equipment (e.g., protective glasses, rubber gloves and apron) must
be used when operating the battery. Otherwise, if the diluted sulfuric acid enters the eyes, blindness may be caused; if it contacts the skin, the skin may be
burnt.

k) The battery may have short circuit, electrolyte dry-up or positive pole erosion failure at the end of its life. If it is still used under this state, the battery may
have thermorunaway, bulging or liquid leakage. Please replace the battery before it comes to this state.

l) Before connecting or disconnecting the battery connection cables, please isolate the charging power.

m) Check if the battery has been unexpectedly earthed. In this case, remove the earth connection. Contact with any part of the earthed battery may result
in an electric shock.
