Incorrect handling of lithium batteries can result in injury
• In the event of a short circuit, overheating or mechanical damage, lithium batteries
can cause severe injuries.
• When handled correctly and appropriately lithium batteries pose no risk.
• Store lithium batteries in a cool, dry place, ideally in the original packaging.
• Store lithium batteries away from heat sources (e.g. radiators or sunlight). Lithium
batteries are hermetically sealed. Never attempt to open a lithium battery.
• If the battery housing is damaged small amounts of the electrolyte may leak out. If
this should happen, seal the lithium battery in airtight packaging and wipe up the
traces of electrolyte using absorbent paper towels. You must wear protective rub-
ber gloves when doing so. Clean your hands and the affected surface thoroughly
with cold water.
• Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable lithium batteries. When charging lit-
hium batteries you must use a suitable charging device intended for the purpose.
• Before disposing of the device remove the lithium batteries. Protect used lithium
batteries against potential short circuits, e.g. by covering the poles with adhesive
tape.
• Only use powder extinguishers or other suitable extinguishing agents to extingu-
ish a burning lithium battery.
Possible damage to lithium-ion batteries through incorrect storage
By deep discharge, lithium-ion batteries can be permanently damaged or lose
some of their capacity.
Before long breaks, charge the batteries to around 50 % of their capacity and then
switch off the device. Store the device at room temperature or cooler in an environ-
ment as dry as possible. If the batteries are stored for a longer period, recharge
them to 50 % every three months.
Fully charge the batteries only shortly before use at room temperature.
