4. Bezpečnostní pokyny
Lithium Polymer batteries require careful handling. Failure to follow these safety instructions can result in fire, personal injury, or property damage.
4.1 Obecná bezpečnostní opatření
- Do not puncture, disassemble, short circuit, or expose the battery to fire or high temperatures.
- Use only chargers specifically designed for LiPo batteries.
- Nenabíjejte bez dozoru.
- Udržujte baterie mimo dosah dětí a domácích zvířat.
- Pokud baterie vykazuje známky nabobtnání, úniku nebo poškození, okamžitě ji přestaňte používat a řádně ji zlikvidujte.
- Zabraňte pádu baterie na zem nebo jejímu vystavení silným nárazům.
4.2 Integrated Protection Features
This battery is equipped with a Protection Circuit Module (PCM) that includes the following safety functions:
- Ochrana proti přebití: Zabraňuje nabití baterie nad bezpečnou úroveňtaglimit e (4.2 V).
- Ochrana proti nadměrnému vybití: Zabraňuje vybití baterie pod bezpečnou úroveň napětítaglimit e (3.0 V).
- Nadproudová ochrana: Limits the current drawn from the battery to prevent damage. Instantaneous overcurrent protection is rated at 4.8A-6A.
- Ochrana proti zkratu: V případě zkratu automaticky vypne napájení.
- Ochrana proti přehřátí: Monitors battery temperature to prevent overheating during operation or charging.
