We are heading for a future with an increasing number of battery powered products.
As more and more products will be equipped with batteries, a responsibility for all of us who will use these products in the future will also follow. Battery-powered products are, certainly, a wise environmentally friendly and sustainable choice, but this also means that as a consumer and user of these products, you must be aware that there may be a risk of property damage or even personal injury if you do not follow the safety instructions specified by the manufacturer.
All batteries, not just batteries placed in speakers, have a special vulnerability to rough handling, heat and incorrect use as a result of their design. This can cause a non-functioning battery, but also risk fire and explosion.
Audio Pro, as manufacturer of products with batteries, would like to inform you how you should handle a product with battery in the proper way:
Whenever you have a product that contains Lithium Ion battery, you need to mind environmental and safety issues.
The battery in our products contains chemicals that can be harmful to the environment and to people, so you need make sure that you do not expose the battery to anything that can harm it.
Always consider the environmental issues and follow local regulations when disposing of batteries.
Do not expose the battery to excess heat, direct sunlight or fire. To protect the battery, the battery cannot be charged when temperature is lower than 5 degrees Celsius or higher than 40 degrees Celsius. The same applies for operating temperature.
Keep an eye on your product when the product is charging.
Do not disassemble or short circuit the battery.
Make sure you do not accidentally drop your speaker onto a hard surface. You may risk damaging the battery, which thereby can malfunction. If you have dropped your product, let a professional look over your product and battery before you use or charge your product again.
