Replace the lithium battery with the same or equivalent type, as recommended by
the manufacturer.

There is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.

Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Do not dispose of the batteries in water, or by fire.

Disposal requirements vary by country and by state.

Lithium batteries are not listed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as
a hazardous waste. Therefore, they can typically be disposed of as normal waste.

If you are disposing of large quantities, contact a local waste-management
service.

No hazardous compounds are used within the battery module.

The weight of the lithium contained in each coin cell is approximately 0.035 grams.

Two types of batteries are used interchangeably:

CR chemistry uses manganese dioxide as the cathode material.

BR chemistry uses poly-carbonmonofluoride as the cathode material.

The battery in the bq4830 device is encapsulated and not user-replaceable.
