DO NOT INCINERATE: Do not dispose of any battery in a fire or incinerator.
The heat of fire may cause battery cells to explode and/or release dangerous
gases.
Battery Maintenance
For safe and proper battery use, please observe the following:
• Battery packs should be charged only in non-hazardous environments;
• Use only STANDARD HORIZON-approved batteries;
• Use only a STANDARD HORIZON, (a Marine Division of VERTEX STAN-
DARD) approved charger. The use of any other charger may cause
permanent damage to the battery.
• Follow charging instructions provided with the chargers.
• Keep the battery contacts clean.
Battery Storage
Store batteries in a cool place to maximize storage life. Since batteries are
subject to self-discharge, avoid high storage temperatures that cause large
self-discharge rates. After extended storage, a full recharge is recommended.
When a battery pack is not used for a long time, please remove it from the
transceiver. Also, while in storage, the charge will drain slightly over time and
the battery should be recharged 50% every six months.
Battery Recycling
DO NOT PLACE USED BATTERIES IN YOUR REGULAR TRASH!
LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES MUST BE COLLECTED, RECYCLED OR DIS-
POSED OF IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND MANNER.
The incineration, land filling or mixing of Lithium-Ion batteries with the munici-
pal solid waste stream is PROHIBITED BY LAW in most areas.
Return batteries to an approved Lithium-Ion battery recycler. This may be
where you purchased the battery.
Contact your local waste management officials for other information regard-
ing the environmentally sound collection, recycling and disposal of Lithium-
Ion batteries.
