Kenwood TK-3230 User Manual

•  Do not charge the battery near fires or under direct 

 

If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may 

charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal 

chemical reaction may occur.  The battery may generate heat or 

smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.

•  Use only the specified charger and observe charging 

 

If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high 

temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage 

or current over regulated value, or with a remodelled charger), 

it may overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.  

The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into 

flame.

•  Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an 

 

This may break or deform the battery, causing a short-circuit.  

The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into 

flame.

•  Do not jar or throw the battery!

 

An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat 

or smoke, rupture, and/or burst into flame.  If the battery’s 

protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at an 

abnormal current (or voltage), and an abnormal chemical 

reaction may occur.

•  Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!

 

The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into 

flame.

•  Do not solder directly onto the battery!

 

If the insulator is melted or the gas release vent or safety 

function is damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, 

rupture, or burst into flame.

•  Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!

 

When charging a reversed battery, an abnormal chemical 

reaction may occur.  In some cases, an unexpected large 

amount of current may flow upon discharging.  The battery may 

generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
