General Battery Safety Instructions for Battery Models: BAT41, BAT50, BAT60, BAT70, BAT80

BAT80 batteries are specifically designed only for use with product(s) offered by: HM Electronics Inc. (HME) Clear-Com LLC, an HME Company

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: To ensure the safety and reliability of your Battery, follow the guidelines in this section.

Using the Battery

WARNING! Do Not Abuse/Modify Battery Packs

Lithium-ion cells and battery packs may get hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury if modified or abused.

Follow the safety instructions below

  • Do not place the battery in fire or heat the battery.
  • Do not connect the battery backward, so the polarity is reversed.
  • Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the battery to each other with any metal object (such as a wire).
  • Do not carry or store the battery together with necklaces, hairpins or other metal objects.
  • Do not pierce the battery with nails, strike the battery with a hammer, step on the battery or otherwise subject it to strong impacts to shocks.
  • Do not solder directly onto the battery.
  • Do not expose the battery to water or salt water, or allow the battery to get wet.
  • Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety and protection devices which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.
  • The protection circuit module provided with battery packs is not to be used as a substitute for a shut off switch.
  • Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or in other high temperature locations.
  • Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery in cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance or shortened life expectancy.
  • When the battery is worn out, insulate the terminals with adhesive tape or a similar non-conducting material before disposal.
  • Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while using, charging, or storing the battery, the battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or shape or appears abnormal in any other way.
  • Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction cookware.

In the event the battery leaks and the fluid gets into one’s eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.

If the device causes abnormal current to flow, it may cause the battery to become hot, explode, or ignite causing serious injury.

Charger Types

Your battery must only be charged with an HME/Clear-Com recommended charger ONLY. Any attempt to use other types of chargers may cause an explosive reaction, fire or chemical burns.

Battery Charger Models

BAT41 Charger Model: AC40 and AC40A

BAT50 Charger Model: AC50

BAT60 Charger Model: AC60

BAT70 Charger Model: AC70

BAT80 Charger Model: AC80

Charging the Battery

Be sure to follow the warnings listed below while charging the battery. Failure to do so may cause the battery to become hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury.

  • Do not continue charging the battery if it does not recharge as specified in the HME/Clear-Com User Guide, under charging instructions.
  • Do not attach the battery to an external charger, power supply plug or directly to a car’s cigarette lighter.
