Konica Minolta CM-25cG Instruction Manual page 5

Do not use, charge, or store the lithium-ion battery in a high-temperature environment. Doing so
may cause the batteries to overheat, catch fire, or rupture.
Do not throw or submit the lithium-ion battery to strong impacts such as from a fall from a high
location. If the lithium-ion battery is deformed or if the built-in protection system is broken, an
abnormal current or voltage may be applied to the battery during charging, which may cause the
batteries to overheat, rupture, or catch fire.
Do not step on the lithium-ion battery or pierce with a nail or hit with a hammer. If the lithium-ion
battery is deformed or if the protection system is damaged, the battery may overheat, rupture, or
catch fire.
Should an unusual odor, heat, discoloration, deformation, or other previously unnoticed
abnormality occur during use, charging, or storage, remove the battery from the instrument or
charger and discontinue use. Continued use of a battery in this condition may cause the batteries to
overheat, rupture, or catch fire.
If the lithium-ion battery is found to be leaking or emitting an unusual odor, keep the battery away
from any open flames. The electrolytic solution from the battery may catch fire, causing rupture or
fire.
CAUTION
(Failure to adhere to the following points may result in injury or damage to the
instrument or other property.)
When using the AC adapter, make sure, that an AC outlet is located near the instrument, and that
the AC adapter plug can be connected to and disconnected from the AC outlet easily.
When cleaning the instrument, unplug the AC adapter plug from the outlet. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock.
Do not use any battery other than that specified for use with the instrument. When inserting a
battery into the instrument, be sure to insert the battery correctly according to the polarity
(positive +, negative –) display on the instrument. Fire, injury, or stains on surroundings may occur
if the battery is damaged or leaking.
Do not use a wet battery.
Doing so may cause the battery to rupture or overheat, which could result in fire or injury.
Do not place the instrument on an unstable or sloping surface. Doing so may result in the
instrument dropping or overturning, causing injury. Be careful not to drop the instrument when
carrying it as well.
Do not use the instrument if the sample specimen measuring port (measurement area) is in the line
of sight. Doing so may result in injury to the eye.
Take care not to pinch yourself on the areas of the instrument that open and close. Doing so may
result in injury.
