6.2 Safety
6.2.1 Battery Pack
• Never disassemble or retrofit the battery pack. The battery pack has safety mechanism and protection means
incorporated to avoid hazards. Should it be damaged, the battery pack could become hot, generate smoke,
explode, or ignite.
• Never contact the “+” and “-“ terminals with metal objects such as a wire. Also, do not carry or store the
battery with a metal necklace or hair pin. Otherwise, the battery pack may be short-circuited resulting in an
excessive current and causing the battery to become hot, smoke, explode, or catch fire.
• Neither dispose of the battery pack into a fire nor heat it. The insulation may be burnt, the gas exhaust valve
or safety mechanism may be damaged, or the internal electrolyte may ignite, causing the battery pack to
become hot, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• Neither leave nor use the battery pack in a place with a high temperature (over 80 °C) or close to a fire or hot
stove. Should the resin separator be damaged due to excessive heat, the battery pack may be short-circuited
causing it to become heated, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• Do not soak the battery pack in fresh water or sea water. If the protection means incorporated in the battery
pack is damaged, the battery pack may become hot, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• Do not attempt to charge the battery close to a fire, in direct sunlight, or in a car parked in the sun. A heated
battery pack will trigger the internal hazard protection means to stop the charging function. Or, the protection
means may be damaged and the battery may be charged with an excessive current or voltage, or have
abnormal chemical reactions induced to cause it to become hot, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• Do not stick a pin or nail in the battery pack. Neither hit it with a hammer nor stamp it. If this is done, the
battery pack may be broken or deformed resulting in a short circuit and causing it to become hot, smoke,
explode, or ignite.
• Do not hit or throw the battery pack. If the protection means incorporated in the battery pack is damaged, the
battery pack may be charged with an excessive current or voltage, or have abnormal chemical reactions
induced to cause it to become hot, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• Never use a battery pack that is significantly damaged or deformed. It may become hot, smoke, explosion, or
ignite.
• Do not attempt to solder anything directly on the battery pack surface. The insulation may be damaged or the
gas exhaust valve or safety mechanism may be damaged, causing the battery pack to become hot, smoke,
explode, or ignite.
• Do not use the battery pack in other device than the IT-10. The performance or service life of the battery pack
may be reduced or abnormal current may flow to cause it to become hot, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• When charging the battery pack use only dedicated cradles or dedicated battery charger and its AC adaptor
available from CASIO, at a temperature between 0°C and 40°C. If the battery pack is charged with battery
chargers other than those specified by CASIO, it may be over-charged, or charged with an excessive current,
or have abnormal chemical reactions induced, causing it to become hot, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• The battery pack has a specific polarity. Do not force it into the IT-10 battery compartment. Check the
polarity. If the battery pack is installed backwards, it can be incorrectly charged and have an abnormal
chemical reaction induced, causing it to become hot, smoke, explode, or ignite.
• If the internal electrolyte of the battery pack leaks and enters the eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse the eye with a
sufficient amount of clean water, such as tap water, then immediately consult with a doctor. The electrolyte
can cause eye damage.
