Im-proper handling and/or failure to abide by proper storage instruc-tions may cause permanent damage to batteries, or degrade batterycharge holding capacity. Improper handling practices or failure tocomply with instructions may also put you at risk.Lithium-Ion batteries, like the REDVOLT®, REDVOLT XL, and REDBRICK®, self-discharge over time. When storing for long periodsof time, store batteries separately from the camera or charger andremember to charge batteries to a capacity level of 50% to 80%. Ifbatteries will be stored for long periods of time, RED recommendsthat you check the charge level at least once every six (6) months,and recharge batteries to a capacity level of 50% to 80%.When not in use, remove the battery from the camera or charger andstore the battery in a cool, dry place. Avoid extreme hot tempera-tures (such as inside a hot car), corrosive gas, and direct sunlight.The optimal storage temperature for batteries is between –20°C to20°C (–4°F to 68°F).WARNING: Batteries stored in a dischargedstate for long periods of time may self-dis-charge and lose the ability to hold a charge.WARNING: If recharging operation fails tocomplete even when a specified rechargingtime has elapsed, immediately stop further re-charging. DO NOT store batteries in a fully charged state for extendedperiods of time. DO NOT store batteries in a fully discharged state for extendedperiods of time. DO NOT store batteries in the camera, in a camera module, orin a charger for extended periods of time. DO NOT use batteries for purposes other than their intendeduse. DO NOT store batteries in extreme hot or cold temperatures. DO NOT store batteries in direct sunlight. DO NOT use third-party chargers with your RED batteries. DO NOT disassemble or modify the battery. DO NOT overcharge batteries. Overcharging may increase in-ternal temperature beyond the recommended limits and causepermanent damage to the battery. DO NOT connect the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals toa metal object such as a wire. DO NOT transport or store the battery together with metal ob-jects such as jewelry, hairpins, etc. as they may generate heatif they come into contact with the battery. DO NOT discard the battery into fire or heat. DO NOT store, use, or recharge the battery near a heat sourcesuch as a fire or a heater. DO NOT allow the battery to get wet. DO NOT pierce the battery with pointed or other sharp objects. DO NOT step on, throw, or strike the battery with a hammer. DO NOT use a battery that appears to be deformed or dam-aged. DO NOT directly solder the battery. DO NOT put the battery into a microwave oven or a pressur-ized container. DO NOT use or subject the battery to intense sunlight or hottemperatures such as in a car in hot weather. DO NOT use it in a location where static electricity may bepresent. DO NOT exceed the recharging temperature range of 0˚C to40˚C (32˚F to 104˚F). RED recommends that you only use RED chargers to rechargeRED batteries. Store the battery in a location where children cannot reach it. If the battery leaks or gives off a bad odor, discontinue useimmediately. If the battery gives off an odor, generates heat, becomes dis-colored or deformed, or in any way appears abnormal dur-ing use, recharging or storage, immediately remove it from theequipment or battery charger and discontinue use. If electrolyte begins leaking from the battery and comes intocontact with your skin or clothing, immediately wash it awaywith running water. Failure to do this may result in skin inflam-mation. If the battery leaks and the electrolyte reaches the eyes, donot rub them. Instead, rinse the eyes with clean running waterand immediately seek medical attention. Failure to do this mayresult in eye injury. If you find discoloration, a bad odor due to leakage, overheat-ing and/or other irregularities when using the battery for thefirst time, contact your Bomb Squad representative immedi-ately.NOTE: For more information regarding REDbattery charging and instructions for care,please refer to our Terms and Conditions.SHIPPING DISCLAIMERUnless you have been certified to ship dangerous goods, you mustwork with a Dangerous Goods, Class 9-certified shipper to assistyou with a shipment that includes a RED BRICK (or other regulatedlithium ion batteries).
