Battery - Dell Axim X5 System Information Manual

CAUTION: Safety Instructions (continued)

Battery

• Use only Dell™ battery modules that are approved for use with
this device. Use of other types may increase the risk of fire or
explosion.
• Do not carry a battery pack in your pocket, purse, or other
container where metal objects (such as car keys or paper clips)
could short-circuit the battery terminals. The resulting excessive
current flow can cause extremely high temperatures and may
result in damage to the battery pack or cause fire or burns.
• The battery poses a burn hazard if you handle it improperly. Do
not disassemble it. Handle a damaged or leaking battery pack
with extreme care. If the battery is damaged, electrolyte may leak
from the cells and may cause personal injury.
• Keep the battery away from children.
• Do not store or leave your device or battery pack near a heat
source such as a radiator, fireplace, stove, electric heater, or other
heat-generating appliance or otherwise expose it to temperatures
in excess of 60ºC (140ºF). When heated to excessive
temperatures, battery cells could explode or vent, posing a risk of
fire.
• Do not dispose of your device's battery in a fire or with normal
household waste. Battery cells may explode. Discard a used
battery according to the manufacturer's instructions or contact
your local waste disposal agency for disposal instructions.
Dispose of a spent or damaged battery promptly.
