Dos
| 1. |
Read the instructions on your device
before installing batteries. |
| 2. |
Insert batteries into your device properly,
with the (+) and (-) terminals aligned correctly. |
| 3. |
Always fully charge your batteries before
use. |
| 4. |
When you charge the batteries for the
first time, or if the batteries have been stored for
a long time, it normally takes about 3 charge and discharge
cycles for the batteries to regain full capacity. |
| 5. |
It is normal for batteries to become
hot during charging and they will gradually cool down
to room temperature after fully charged. |
| 6. |
Store the batteries in a cool and dry
place. |
| 7. |
Remove batteries from the electrical
device if the device is not going to be used for a long
time. |
| 8. |
Keep battery contact surfaces and battery
compartment contacts clean by rubbing them with a clean
pencil eraser or a rough cloth each time you replace
batteries. |
| 9. |
If the performance of the batteries decrease
substantially, it is time to replace the batteries. |
| 10. |
Keep batteries away from children. If
swallowed, contact a physician at once. |
Don'ts
| 1. |
Do not charge other types of batteries
such as alkaline, carbon zinc, lithium, rechargeable
alkaline or any other kind of batteries not specified
as they may leak or burst, causing personal injury and
damage. |
| 2. |
Do not charge batteries of different
capacities at the same time except when the charger
is equipped with individual charging channels. |
| 3. |
Do not charge batteries of different
residual capacities (e.g. flat batteries and partially
discharged batteries) at the same time except when the
charger is equipped with individual charging channels. |
| 4. |
Do not overcharge or overdischarge batteries.
It will decrease the batteries' service life. |
| 5. |
Do not mix batteries of different types
(e.g. NiMH, NiCd, alkaline, etc.) and capacities (e.g.
1300mAh and 1600mAh) in the electronic device. |
| 6. |
Do not short circuit, incinerate
and disassemble batteries. |
| 7. |
Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
They can rupture or leak. |
| 8. |
Do not drop or cause unnecessary shocks
to the battery. |
| 9. |
Do not carry loose batteries in a pocket
or purse with metal objects like coins, paper clips
and hair pins, etc. This will short circuit the battery,
generating high heat. |
