BYD: Specification of H-4/5A2100 page 4 of 5 5.5 Shock Cells shall be mechanically and electrically normal after being subjected to a drop from a height of 450mm (17.716inches) onto an oak board in a voluntary axis respectively 3 times. 5.6 Short Cells shall not explode after 1 hour short-circuit test. 5.7 Incorrect polarity charging Cells shall not explode after 5 hour of incorrect polarity charing at 1 CmA. 6. PRECAUTION 6.1 We recommend you to set the cut-off voltage at 1.0V/cell. 6.2 If it is below 1.0V/cell, cells may have over-discharged or reverse charged. 6.3 Do not detect -△V for first 5 minutes of charging. 6.4 The cells shall be delivered in charged condition, Before testing or using, the cells shall be correctly charged in accordance with this specifications. 7. WARNING 7.1 Avoid direct soldering onto cells. 7.2 Observe correct polarity when connecting. 7.3 Do not charge with more than our specified current. 7.4 Use only within the specified working temperature range. 8. DANGER! 8.1 Avoid throwing cells into a fire or attempting to disassemble them. As the electrolyte inside is strong alkaline and can damage skin and clothes. 8.2 Avoid short circuiting. It may be leakage. 8.3 Not to be used in sealed conditions for Ni-MH cells. -Confidential. Please keep integrated.The content of this document is the property of BYD Company Limited.
