| Batteries Handling Warnings
Charging of Primary Batteries
Charging of primary batteries may cause explosion or leakage which may result in bodily
injury.
Metal-Jacketed Batteries
It is important to note that some batteries have metal jackets. Proper design of devices
using these batteries should include electrical isolation of the battery jacket from the
device circuitry to prevent short circuiting. Short circuits may cause battery explosions
or leakage which may result in bodily injury.
Plastic Film Labels
It is important to note that some batteries have plastic film labels over the metal raw
cell. Proper design of devices using these batteries should include electrical insulation
as well as the avoidance of burrs and/or sharp edges and corners that can cut through the
plastic and result in battery shorting or inadvertent charging.
There are many other conditions to avoid for the proper safe use of batteries.
