Guidelines for the safe use of lithium batteries as well as their storage help prevent possible injuries or accidents. Only use chargers designed specifically for lithium-ion batteries in order to prevent overcharging. Keep the battery in places that are cool and dry, away from direct heat and sunlight. Wear protective clothing when moving and operating batteries to ensure there is no direct contact with harmful body fluids in the event of a leak. Refrain from piercing or crushing the exterior casing of the battery as it can cause short-circuiting, fires, and other damaging consequences. If the battery starts to swell or behaves in unusual ways, isolate immediately and dispose of the battery using proper measures
