Charging

Proper Charging

ALWAYS refer to your device instruction manual or the charger instruction manual that came with your device for proper charging instructions.

Retain the original product literature that came with your device and its charger for future reference.

ONLY use the proper charger specifically designed for your Lithium-Ion Batteries or Battery Packs.

A charger that is suitable for a certain type of battery pack could increase the risk of fire when used with another type of battery pack. Safeguards in both Lithium-Ion Battery Packs and Lithium-Ion Battery chargers may prevent short-circuiting, overcharging, and overheating that could result in fire and explosion.

• Lithium-Ion Batteries must be charged with constant current/constant voltage (CC/CV).
• The charge current must be lower than the maximum charge current Samsung SDI specified for your battery.
• The charge voltage must be lower than the maximum charge voltage specified by Samsung SDI for your battery.

Consumers or end-users should only charge Lithium-Ion Battery Packs using dedicated chargers supplied with their device.

Protection circuitry incorporated in both the Lithium-Ion Battery Packs and their dedicated chargers is essential to prevent short circuits, overcharging, and overheating that can result in battery venting, fire, and explosion.

DO NOT charge individual, cylindrical Lithium-Ion Batteries if you are a consumer or end-user.

If Lithium-Ion Batteries are charged individually, ALWAYS correctly align the plus (+) and minus (–) terminals. ALWAYS insert batteries into the charger in the proper orientation.
Individual Lithium-Ion Batteries cannot offer the same level of protection as Lithium-Ion Battery Packs.

ALWAYS monitor Lithium-Ion Batteries and Battery Packs while charging.

Adult supervision required. Proper monitoring may prevent short circuits, overcharging, and overheating that can result in battery venting, fire, and explosion.

CHARGE indoors at room temperature.

If the temperature is too high or too low, your batteries may be damaged. If the humidity is too high, your batteries may be damaged.

DO NOT place charger and Lithium-Ion Batteries or Battery Packs under your pillow, on your bed, or on your couch.

DO NOT leave Lithium-Ion Batteries or Battery Packs on the charger for prolonged periods of time.

DO NOT overcharge Lithium-Ion Batteries. Lithium-Ion Batteries and Battery Packs should not be charged overnight.
Your charger may possibly shut down after a period of time. See your charger manual for additional information.
