Section V - Fire Fighting Instructions
5.1 Fire and explosion hazard:
The battery can leak and/or spout vaporized or decomposed and combustible
electrolyte fumes in case of exposure above 70℃ resulting from inappropriate use or
the environment. Cells or batteries may flame or leak potentially hazardous organic vapors if
exposed to excessive heat or fire. Fire, excessive heat, or over voltage conditions may
produce hazardous decomposition products. Damaged or opened cells or batteries canresult in rapid heating and the release of flammable vapors. Vapors may be heavier than air
and may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation to an ignition source and flash
back fire, excessive heat, or over voltage conditions may produce hazardous decomposition
products. During water application, caution is advised as burning pieces of flammableparticles may be ejected from the fire.
5.2 Extinguishing Media:
Suitable CO2
Dry chemical or Foam extinguishers.
Not to be used: Type D extinguishers.
Special Fire Fighting Procedure: WEAR NIOSH APPROVED SCBA & FULL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
As with any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus to avoid inhalation of hazardous
decomposition products.

Section VI - Accidental Release
GeneralChemical contents are sealed in metal can. But if the battery is mechanically or electricallyabused, contents may leak out. In such case, take action as showing below.
The preferred response is to leave the area and allow the batteries to cool and the vapours
to dissipate.
Personal precautions
Avoid skin and eye contact or inhalation of vapours. Temporary inhalation of odor andattaching of electrolyte to skin does not cause serious health hazard. Be sure the ventilation
and washing out of electrolyte quickly.
Environmental precautions
Collect all released material in a plastic lined metal container and remove spilled liquid withabsorbent. Doing this, protect your skin and eyes with gloves and protection glasses. Avoid
direct contact with internal components. Specific environmental precaution is not necessary.

Section VII – Handling and Storage
When used correctly, Lithium-ion Battery Pack (Rechargeable Single cell Battery) provides asafe and dependable source of power. However, if they are misused or abused, leakage,venting, or in extreme cases explosion and/or fire may result.
Make sure to observe amongst others, following warnings.
Handling:- Do not insert batteries in reverse. Observe the polarity markings on battery and equipment− Do not short-circuit batteries− Do not deform or disassemble batteries− Do not incinerate or dispose batteries in fire
− Do not place battery on metal case, metal plate or antistatic material.
− Do not mix batteries types or brands. In case of multi cell application, replace all batteries
to new at once when replacing used batteries.
− Do not heat batteries or exposure direct sunlight.
− Do not weld or solder directly to batteries− A battery with a damaged container should NOT be exposed to water− Do not allow children to replace batteries without adult supervision− Keep batteries out of the reach of children. In case of ingestion of a cell or battery, theperson involved should seek medical assistance immediately.
− Equipment intended for use by children should have battery compartments which aretamper-proof− Do not encapsulate and/or modify batteries− Exhausted batteries should be immediately removed from equipment and disposed of− When discarding batteries with solder tags, insulate the tags by wrapping them with tape,foil, etc.
Storage:− Store unused batteries in their original packaging and keep them away from metal objects
which may short-circuit them. Storing unpackaged cells together could result in cellshorting and heat build-up.
− Store and display batteries in their original packaging in well ventilated, dry and cool
conditions.
− Avoid storing or display batteries in direct sun or in places where they get exposed to rain
− Do not stack battery cartons on top of each other exceeding a specified height. The heightis clearly dependent on the strength of the packaging. As for general rule this height should
not exceed 1.5 m for cardboard packages or 3 m for wooden cases. The above
recommendations are equally valid for storage conditions during prolonged transit. Thus,
batteries should be stored away from ship engines and not left for long periods inunventilated metal box cars (containers) during summer.

Section X – Stability and Reactivity
Since batteries utilize a chemical reaction they are actually considered a chemical product.
As such, battery performance will deteriorate over time even if stored for a long period oftime without being used. In addition, the various usage conditions such as charge, discharge,
ambient temperature, etc. are not maintained within the specified ranges the life expectancyof the battery may be shortened or the device in which the battery is used may be damagedby electrolyte leakage.
Conditions to avoid: See Sections VII & VIII

Section XI – Toxicological Information
In case electrolyte is spilled and exposed to air, HF could be released.
May include hydrogen fluoride and carbon oxides gas.
May cause skin and eye Irritation when contacted.

Section XII – Ecological Information
The chemicals mentioned in Section II are contained in a sealed can.
Under conditions of normal use, the chemicals will not be released.
It does not pose a physical or health risk to users, see section XIII for disposal.
Heavy metal in battery: Mercury(Hg) and Cadmium(Cd) are neither contained nor used inbattery.

Section XIII – Disposal Considerations
Waste disposal method:a) Be sure to comply with your federal, state and local regulation disposal of used batteries.
Dispose in accordance with appropriate national and international regulations, below somereferences. European Community: according to Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electricaland Electronic Equipment (WEEE), Annex II, batteries have to be removed from any
separately collected WEEE. The removed batteries have to be treated according to theBattery directive 2006/66/EC
US: Lithium batteries are neither specifically listed nor exempted from the Federal
Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) hazardous waste regulations. The only materialof possible concern due to its reactivity is lithium metal. However, button cells contain so little
lithium that they can be disposed of in the normal municipal
waste stream.
Use a professional disposal firm for disposal of mass quantities of undischarged lithium
batteries.
b) Open cells should be treated as hazardous waste
DO NOT INCINERATE or subject battery cells to temperatures in excess of 212°F (100°C).
Such treatment can cause cell rupture.
