Notes On Using Lithium-Ion Batteries; Battery Indicator - PeakTech 9021 Bedienungsanleitung

7. Notes on using lithium-ion batteries

Note: Always follow the following precautions when handling Li-Ion batteries:

Do not work in environments with extreme temperatures or very high pressure
differentials, as this may lead to unwanted chemical reactions within the battery.
While using Li-Ion batteries this may cause smoke, fire or bursting of the battery.

Never expose the battery to contact with fire or heat. Avoid storing the battery in
direct sunlight.

Never destroy or open the housing of the battery by drilling, cutting, hitting or
other physical action, because an internal short circuit with possible heat / fire can
occur.

Never immerse the battery in water or connect the positive (+) and minus (-) pins
with a metal object.

The Li-Ion battery pack is suitable for use only with the supplied charger. At the
first charging, the device should be loaded at least 5 hours but not more than 12
hours.

Store the battery at least in temperatures of 0°C and maximum 40°C.

To preserve the battery power even on prolonged storage, charge the battery at
least once every six months.

Replace the battery only with an identical original part.

A Li-Ion battery does not belong in household waste and should be submitted
separately at the local waste station or directly send it back to your
dealer/manufacturer.
