Dangerous Goods Regulations
Many products of Leica Geosystems are powered by Lithium batteries.
Lithium batteries can be dangerous under certain conditions and can pose a safety haz-
ard. In certain conditions, Lithium batteries can overheat and ignite.
When carrying or shipping your Leica product with Lithium batteries onboard a
F
commercial aircraft, you must do so in accordance with the IATA Danger-ous
Goods Regulations.
Leica Geosystems has developed Guidelines on "How to carry Leica products" and
F
"How to ship Leica products" with Lithium batteries. Before any transport-ation of
a Leica product, we ask you to consult these guidelines on our web page
(http://www.leica-geosystems.com/dgr) to ensure that you are in accordance with
the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations and that the Leica products can be trans-
ported correctly.
Damaged or defective batteries are prohibited from being carried or transported
F
onboard any aircraft. Therefore, ensure that the condition of any battery is safe
for transportation.
