ION (LI-ION)
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is
severely damaged or is completely worn out. The
battery pack can explode in a fi re. Toxic fumes and
materials are created when lithium ion battery packs
are burned.

skin, immediately wash area with mild soap and
water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water
over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation
ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery
electrolyte is composed of a mixture of liquid organic
carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause
respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If symptoms
persists, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid
may be fl ammable if exposed to spark or
fl ame.
