1.2. Safety instructions and warnings for battery use

• As with other batteries, lithium batteries also have the potential to conti-
nue being a source of danger even in the supposedly discharged state, as
they can deliver a very high short-circuit current.
• Too deep discharge leads to lasting damage. Deeply discharged battery
modules may no longer be charged or operated. For example, deep
discharge can occur during very long storage of a battery module which
was completely discharged (to discharge limit) when taken into storage.
• The battery must not be disassembled, opened, damaged or crushed.
• The battery should not be exposed to heat or fire. Prolonged, direct sun-
light is to be avoided.
• The battery should be kept out of the reach of children.
• The battery must not be short-circuited or connected with the wrong
polarity.
• The connection cables of the battery pack must not be modified.
• One or more batteries should not be stored dangerously in a box or dra-
wer where they could short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by
other conductive materials.
• The battery must not be subjected to mechanical shocks.
• Only use chargers specifically designed for use with lithium iron phos-
phate battery systems.
• The polarity symbols plus (+) and minus (-) on the cells, batteries and
devices must always be observed. The correct use must be ensured.
• The battery should be kept clean and dry.
• If the battery connections become dirty, clean them with a dry, clean cloth.
• The battery must be charged before use. The instructions of the manuf-
acturer or the information in these instructions for correct charging must
always be observed.
