Kenwood TH-D72A Instruction Manual page 8

• Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an instrument, or step
on it!
Ths may break or deform the battery, causng a short-crcut. The battery may
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
• Do not jar or throw the battery!
An mpact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke, rupture, and/or
burst nto flame. If the battery's protecton crcut s damaged, the battery may charge
at an abnormal current (or voltage), and an abnormal chemcal reacton may occur.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
• Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
• Do not solder directly onto the battery!
If the nsulator s melted or the gas release vent or safety functon s damaged, the
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
• Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!
When chargng a reversed battery, an abnormal chemcal reacton may occur. In
some cases, an unexpected large amount of current may flow upon dschargng.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery!
•
The battery pack has postve and negatve poles. If the battery pack does not
smoothly connect wth a charger or operatng equpment, do not force t; check the
polarty of the battery. If the battery pack s reverse-connected to the charger, t wll
be reverse-charged and an abnormal chemcal reacton may occur. The battery may
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
• Do not touch a ruptured and leaking battery!
If the electrolyte lqud from the battery gets nto your eyes, wash your eyes wth
fresh water as soon as possble, wthout rubbng your eyes. Go to the hosptal
mmedately. If left untreated, t may cause eye-problems.
Do not charge the battery for longer than the specified time!
•
If the battery pack has not fnshed chargng even after the regulated tme has
passed, stop t. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto
flame.
• Do not place the battery pack into a microwave or high pressure container!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst nto flame.
• Keep ruptured and leaking battery packs away from fire!
If the battery pack s leakng (or the battery emts a bad odor), mmedately remove t
from flammable areas. Electrolyte leakng from battery can easly catch on fre and
may cause the battery to generate smoke or burst nto flame.
Do not use an abnormal battery!
•
If the battery pack emts a bad odour, appears to have dfferent colorng, s deformed,
or seems abnormal for any other reason, remove t from the charger or operatng
equpment and do not use t. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or
burst nto flame.
