crushing or cutting the battery, as doing so may lead to an explosion.

• Leaving the battery in an environment with extremely high

temperature may lead to an explosion, or the leakage of ammable

liquid or gas.

explosion, or the leakage of ammable liquid or gas.

• When the main power input is disconnected from the device, the

disconnected device should still remain readily operable.
