Battery Safety And Disposal - Blackberry Bold 9780 Safety And Product Information

Battery safety and disposal

The BlackBerry® device contains a removable lithium-polymer battery. Do not
dispose of either the BlackBerry device or the lithium-polymer battery in a
fire. Dispose of the lithium-polymer battery in accordance with the laws and
regulations in your area governing disposal of such cell types.
The lithium-polymer battery might present a fire or chemical burn hazard if
mistreated. Do not disassemble, crush or puncture the lithium-polymer
battery. Do not heat the lithium-polymer battery above 140°F (60°C). Do not
allow metal objects to contact the battery terminals.
Use only the lithium-polymer battery that Research In Motion specifies for
use with your particular BlackBerry device model. RIM specifies lithium-
polymer batteries for use in BlackBerry devices in compliance with IEEE® Std
1725™-200x. Using any other lithium-polymer battery might invalidate any
warranty provided with the BlackBerry device and might present a risk of fire
or explosion.
Children should not handle batteries unless they are supervised by an adult.
When this icon appears on your BlackBerry device, the lithium-
polymer battery is not inserted correctly or an invalid lithium-
polymer battery is inserted. If you inserted the lithium-polymer
battery that is specified for use with your particular BlackBerry
device model, remove and reinsert the lithium-polymer battery. If you
inserted an invalid lithium-polymer battery, remove it immediately and insert
the lithium-polymer battery that RIM specifies for use with your particular
BlackBerry device model. Verify that the battery connectors align with the
connectors on your BlackBerry device.
