similar to the genuine products are made available to purchase
in some markets. Some of these battery packs are not adequately
protected with internal protection to meet the requirements of
appropriate safety standards. There is a possibility that these
battery packs may lead to fire or explosion. Please be advised

result of use of a counterfeit battery pack. To ensure that safe
