Battery Information
WARNING: Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend,
deform, puncture, shred, microwave, incinerate, or paint
your camera or battery. Do not insert foreign objects into any
opening on the camera, such as the USB-C port. Do not use
your camera if it's been damaged—for example, if cracked,
punctured, or harmed by water. Disassembling or puncturing
the integrated battery can cause an explosion or fire.

BATTERY DISPOSAL

Most rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are classified as non-hazardous
waste and are safe for disposal in the normal municipal waste stream.
Many regions require battery recycling. Check your local laws to make
sure that you can dispose of rechargeable batteries in your regular trash.
To safely dispose of lithium-ion batteries, protect terminals from exposure
to other metal with packing, masking, or electrical tape so they do not
cause a fire while being transported.
Lithium-ion batteries, however, do contain recyclable materials and
are accepted for recycling by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation's (RBRC) Battery Recycling Program. We encourage
you to visit Call2Recycle at call2recycle.org or call 1-800-BATTERY
in North America to find a convenient recycling location.
Never dispose of a battery in a fire because it may explode.
WARNING: Only use GoPro replacement batteries for
your camera.
