To help prevent battery waste and extend battery service life:
• Charge and use the battery only as described in this manual.
• Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture and corrosive environments.
• Avoid dropping, crushing, puncturing, dismantling, modifying or exposing the battery to excessive mechanical shock.
• Do not expose the battery to fire or temperatures exceeding the specified operating or storage limits.
• Proper use, charging and storage will help maximise battery life and reduce waste.
Do not dispose of lithium-ion batteries with household waste.
• At the end of the battery’s service life, dispose of it through designated battery collection points or authorised recycling facilities in accordance with local regulations.
• Where available, use retailer, municipal or producer take-back schemes for waste batteries.
Waste lithium-ion batteries should be collected separately to enable preparation for re-use, repurposing where appropriate, recycling and material recovery.
• Separate collection helps conserve valuable raw materials and reduces environmental impacts.
• Collection and treatment services are available through authorised collection points and recycling facilities.
Handle waste batteries carefully to prevent short circuits, fire or leakage.
• Do not crush, puncture, dismantle, incinerate or expose waste batteries to excessive heat.
• If the battery is damaged, swollen, leaking or overheating, discontinue use immediately and dispose of it through an authorised collection facility.
• Where practical, cover exposed battery terminals with insulating tape before disposal.
• Store waste batteries in a cool, dry place away from metal objects and combustible materials until they are recycled.
Lithium-ion batteries contain substances that may present risks to human health and the environment if improperly handled or disposed of.
• Never dispose of batteries in fire, household waste or the natural environment.
• Proper collection and recycling help prevent environmental pollution, reduce safety risks and enable the recovery of valuable materials for future use.
