v• Do not charge the battery near fire or under direct sunlight!If the battery’s protecton crcut s damaged, the battery maycharge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemcalreacton may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke,rupture, or burst nto flame.• Use only the specified charger and observe chargingrequirements!If the battery s charged n unspecfed condtons (under hghtemperature over the regulated value, excessve hgh voltage orcurrent over regulated value, or wth a remodeled charger), t mayovercharge or an abnormal chemcal reacton may occur. Thebattery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.• Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with aninstrument, or step on it!Ths may break or deform the battery, causng a short-crcut. Thebattery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.• Do not jar or throw the battery!An mpact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke,rupture, and/or burst nto flame. If the battery’s protecton crcuts damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal current (orvoltage), and an abnormal chemcal reacton may occur. Thebattery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.• Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst ntoflame.• Do not solder directly onto the battery!If the nsulator s melted or the gas release vent or safety functons damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, orburst nto flame.• Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!When chargng a reversed battery, an abnormal chemcal reactonmay occur. In some cases, an unexpected large amount ofcurrent may flow upon dschargng. The battery may generateheat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
