1 .7 Li-ion Battery Safety Instructions

Failure to read, and follow Li-ion battery safety instructions,
and warnings may result in fire, personal injury, and property
damages if the battery is charged and/or used improperly.
• DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT. Short circuits may cause a fire and
injury!
• Charge battery fully before first use.
• To charge the battery use only the specifically designed
charger, provided in the packaging.
• Do not keep a bare battery in your pocket, purse, or
anywhere together with other metal (conductive) objects.
• If the battery is damaged in any way stop using the dive
computer immediately.
• Do not immerse in any liquid or allow the battery to get
wet.
• Do not place the battery in high-pressure containers,
microwave ovens, or on induction cookware.
• Immediately discontinue use if, while using, charging,
or storing, the battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot,
changes color or shape, or appears abnormal in any other
way.
• Do not carry or store batteries together with any conductive
metal objects.
• Do not expose the battery to excessive sunlight or heat.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
• Keep the battery away from children, and pets.
• Never charge or store the batteries inside your car in
extreme temperature. Extreme temperatures (low or high)
might ignite the battery and cause a fire.
• Do not connect positive, and negative battery contacts
intentionally, or unintentionally.
• Do not reverse the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals
when charging or using the battery.
• Never charge the battery at a current exceeding
manufacturer-specified charging current.
• Never completely discharge the Li-ion battery.
• After the battery is discharged, do not leave it discharged.
Charge battery as soon as possible
• It is your responsibility to determine that your charger and
host device work properly.
• On battery electrolytes exposure to skin, flush with water
immediately.
• If eye exposure occurs, flush with water for 15 minutes,
and seek emergency care immediately.
• When your Li-ion battery reaches the end of its lifetime, it
can only be replaced by an authorized SCUBAPRO service
center. Do not open your dive computer or try to replace
the battery yourself!
