WARNING
THE LITHIUM BATTERY CONTAINS SULFUR DIOXIDE GAS
UNDER PRESSURE.
DO NOT HEAT, PUNCTURE, DISASSEMBLE, SHORT CIRCUIT,
ATTEMPT TO RECHARGE OR OTHERWISE TAMPER WITH THE
BATTERIES.
TURN OFF EQUIPMENT IF BATTERY COMPARTMENT BECOMES
UNDULY HOT. IF POSSIBLE, WAIT UNTIL THE BATTERIES HAVE
COOLED BEFORE REMOVING THEM.
BATTERIES HAVE SAFETY VENTS TO PREVENT EXPLOSION.
WHEN THEY ARE VENTING GAS, YOU WILL SMELL IT (VERY-
IRRITATING) OR HEAR THE SOUND OF GAS ESCAPING. WHEN
THE SAFETY VENTS HAVE OPERATED, THE BATTERIES ARE
FAIRLY SAFE FROM BURSTING, BUT STILL MUST BE HANDLED
WITH EXTREME CARE BECAUSE OF HEAT.
IF YOU INHALE SULFUR DIOXIDE, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
The PVS-7 will operate with either of the two battery types identified
in Table 2-3. Batteries are not supplied with the PVS-7 and must be
obtained.
