Carefully observe the following precautions for the rechargeable Li-ion battery
(hereafter referred to as "rechargeable battery"), If these precautions are not followed,
overheating, leaking, or cracks in the battery may result in an electrical short,
explosion, smoke, fire, electric shock, injury to yourself or others, or damage to the
product or other property.
Use the rechargeable battery only for its
intended purpose. The labeler and
rechargeable battery are designed to
function exclusively with each other. Do
not insert a different rechargeable
battery into the labeler or insert the
rechargeable battery into a different
labeler, otherwise fire or damage may
result.
To charge the rechargeable battery,
insert the rechargeable battery into the
labeler, and then use the AC adapter
designed specifically for this labeler.
DO NOT charge the rechargeable
battery near a fire or in direct sunlight.
This could activate the protection
circuitry, which is designed to prevent
danger from high heat. Activation of the
protection circuitry could cause charging
to stop, charging to occur with excessive
current or voltage if the protection
circuitry fails, or an abnormal chemical
reaction within the battery.
When charging the rechargeable
battery, use only a battery charger
designed specifically for the
rechargeable battery.
DO NOT allow wires or other metal
objects to come into contact with the
