arning : Lithium polymer batteries are volatile. Failure to read and follow these instructions may result in fire, personal injury, and damage to property if charged or used incorrectly. To prevent injury or damage:

– Use only the charger specified to charge the battery.

– If at any time you see a battery starting to balloon or swell up, discontinue the charging process immediately. Disconnect the battery and place it in a safe observation area for approximately 15 minutes. Continuing to charge a battery that has begun to swell will result in fire.

– Charge the battery in an isolated area, away from flammable materials.

– Never leave charging batteries unattended. When charging the battery you should always remain in constant observation to monitor the charging process and react to potential problems that may occur. 

# C

w arning : The maximum charging current for the UX5 battery is limited to 5 A. This value must be lower than the maximum permissable current (6 A) for the UX5 battery. Incorrect battery charging parameters can destroy your battery and cause it to catch fire or explode. 

# C w arning : Always check that the settings on the charger are correct before charging the battery. Incorrect charger settings may result in damage to the battery, severe burning, and fire hazards.
