Battery - Dell Axim X3 User Manual

CAUTION: Safety Instructions (continued)

Battery

• Use only Dell™ battery modules that are approved for use with this device.
Use of other types may increase the risk of fire or explosion.
• Do not carry a battery pack in your pocket, purse, or other container where
metal objects (such as car keys or paper clips) could short-circuit the
battery terminals. The resulting excessive current flow can cause extremely
high temperatures and may result in damage to the battery pack or cause
fire or burns.
• The battery poses a burn hazard if you handle it improperly. Do not
disassemble it. Handle a damaged or leaking battery pack with extreme
care. If the battery is damaged, electrolyte may leak from the cells and may
cause personal injury.
• Keep the battery away from children.
• Do not store or leave your device or battery pack near a heat source such as
a radiator, fireplace, stove, electric heater, or other heat-generating
appliance or otherwise expose it to temperatures in excess of 60ºC (140ºF).
When heated to excessive temperatures, battery cells could explode or
vent, posing a risk of fire.
• Do not dispose of your device's battery in a fire or with normal household
waste. Battery cells may explode. Discard a used battery according to the
manufacturer's instructions or contact your local waste disposal agency for
disposal instructions. Dispose of a spent or damaged battery promptly.
