mishandling can cause the battery to overheat, which can cause gasses or flame to "vent" from the

battery or the buildup of foreign materials on the battery leads, stop using the battery and obtain a
replacement from the battery manufacturer.
DANGER

DANGER
Do not put the battery in trash that is disposed of in landfills. When disposing of the battery, comply
