SAFETY WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Please be sure to observe the following warnings. As batteries contains flammable substances such as lithium or other organic solvents, they may cause heating, rupture or ignition. CYLINDRICAL TYPE LITHIUM BATTERIES Warning 1. It may cause rupture or ignite. ⃝⃝ Do not charge, short (an exception is to pass batteries through dipping solder) disassemble, deform or heat batteries. Do not throw batteries into fire. ⃝⃝ Do not connect the and electrodes to each other with metal or wire. Do not carry or store batteries together with a metallic necklace, etc ⃝⃝ Avoid inversed...

LITHIUM & MICRO BATTERIES: TYPES AND FEATURES Ever since Panasonic became the first company in the world to develop and commence the mass production of lithium batteries for consumer products in 1971, Panasonic has launched a series of lithium batteries in many shapes and sizes including cylindrical types, coin types and pin types. Panasonic has also successfully introduced coin type rechargeable lithium batteries to the market for applications such as memory back-up or watches. Today, lithium batteries have a proven track record of opening up a host of new fields where conventional batteries...
