DANGER
Rechargeable Li-ion Battery
Carefully observe the following precautions for the optional rechargeable Li-ion battery (hereafter
referred to as “rechargeable battery”), otherwise heat or cracks may be produced, or leaking,
electrical short, explosion, smoke, fire, electric shock, or damage may result.
 To charge the rechargeable battery, insert the rechargeable battery into the printer, and then
use the AC adapter or Car adapter designed specifically for this printer.
 Do not disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the rechargeable battery.
 Do not allow wires or other metal objects to come into contact with the terminals of the
rechargeable battery. Do not carry or store the rechargeable battery with metal objects such as
necklaces or hairpins. This could cause an electrical short, and could cause metal objects such
as wires, necklaces, or hairpins to overheat.
 Do not dispose of the rechargeable battery in fire or intentionally overheat. This could cause the
internal insulation to melt, gas to be emitted, or safety mechanisms to fail. Additionally, the
electrolyte could catch fire.
 Do not use or leave the rechargeable battery near fire, heaters, or other high temperature
(above 80

C/176 F) locations.
 Do not allow the rechargeable battery to come into contact with or to be immersed in water,
including salt water. Do not use in corrosive environments, such as areas where salty air, salt
water, acids, alkalis, corrosive gases, chemicals, or any corrosive liquid are present.
 Do not charge the rechargeable battery near a fire or in direct sunlight. This could cause the
protection circuitry which is designed to prevent danger due to high heat to activate, causing
either charging to stop, charging to occur under excessive current/voltage due to failure of the
protection circuitry, or abnormal chemical reaction within the rechargeable battery.
 When charging the rechargeable battery, use only a battery charger designed specifically for the
rechargeable battery.
 Do not puncture the rechargeable battery with any object, or apply force to the rechargeable
battery such as by stepping or standing on it.
 Do not subject the rechargeable battery to severe shocks or throw the rechargeable battery.
Damage to the rechargeable battery’s protection circuitry could cause the rechargeable battery
to be recharged at an abnormal current/voltage, or cause an abnormal chemical reaction within
the rechargeable battery.
 Do not use the rechargeable battery if it is damaged or leaking.
 Do not directly solder any connections to the rechargeable battery. This could cause internal
insulation to melt, gas to be emitted, or safety mechanisms to fail.
 Do not use the rechargeable battery with the polarity (+) (-) reversed. Check the orientation of
the rechargeable battery before inserting it, and do not try to force the rechargeable battery into
the printer. Charging the rechargeable battery with the polarity reversed could cause an
abnormal chemical reaction within the rechargeable battery or abnormal current flow during
discharge.
 Do not directly connect the rechargeable battery to a household or vehicle cigarette lighter
socket.
 Use the rechargeable battery only for its intended purpose.
 The printer and rechargeable battery are designed to function exclusively with each other. Do
not insert a different rechargeable battery into the printer or insert the rechargeable battery into
a different printer, otherwise fire or damage may result.
