1.3 Battery Safety

Lithium-ion battery packs might get hot, explode, ignite and/or cause serious injury if exploded by
abusive using. Please follow the safety warnings listed as below:
•
Do not throw the battery pack in fire. Do not expose the battery to high temperatures.
•
Do not connect the positive battery pack with negative battery pack to each other with any metal
object (like wire).
• Do not carry or store battery pack together with metal objects.
• Do not pierce the battery pack with nails or drills, strike the battery pack with a hammer, step
on the battery pack or otherwise expose it to strong impacts, shocks or excessive force.
• Do not solder onto the battery pack.
• Do not expose battery pack to liquid or allow the battery contacts to get wet.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack. The battery pack contains safety and
protection measures, which, if damaged, may cause the battery pack to generate heat,
explode or ignite.
• Do not discharge the batteries outside the PHL-7000 series PDT. Do not use the battery in
another device then the PDT or IRU-7000 series cradles. Otherwise, the battery pack can be
damaged, or its life expectancy reduced. If the device causes any abnormal current to flow, it
may cause the battery pack to become hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury.
• In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into one's eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse
well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could
cause damage to the eye.
