microwave oven, dryer, or high pressure container.
9. Keep away from fire immediately when leakage or
foul odor are detected.
10. Do not use in a location where strong static electricity generates.
11. If there is battery leakage, foul odor, heat generated,
discolored or deformed, or in any way appears
abnormal during use, recharging or storage,
