Liquid (electrolyte) leaking from the printer or rechargeable battery may indicate that the
rechargeable battery is damaged. If the rechargeable battery leaks, immediately stop using the
printer, unplug the AC adapter, and isolate the printer by placing it in a bag.
DO NOT touch the electrolyte. If electrolyte gets in the eyes, do not rub them. Immediately rinse
liberally with tap water or other clean water and seek the advice of a medical professional. If left
alone, the electrolyte could cause eye damage. If electrolyte contacts your skin or clothing,
immediately rinse them with water.
DO NOT put the rechargeable battery, or a printer with the rechargeable battery installed, into
a microwave oven or a high pressure container.
DO NOT disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the rechargeable battery.
DO NOT dispose of the rechargeable battery in fire or intentionally overheat. This could cause
the internal insulation to melt, gas to be emitted, or safety mechanisms to fail. Additionally, the
electrolyte solution could catch fire.
DO NOT puncture the rechargeable battery with any objects, subject it to severe shocks or
throw it. Damage to the rechargeable battery's protection circuit could cause the rechargeable
battery to be recharged at an abnormal current/voltage or cause an abnormal chemical reaction
within the rechargeable battery.
DO NOT leave a drained rechargeable battery in the printer for a long period of time. This could
shorten the life of the rechargeable battery or lead to an electrical short.
DO NOT incinerate the rechargeable battery or dispose of it with household waste.
If the printer can only be used for a short period of time, even though the rechargeable battery is
fully charged, the rechargeable battery may have reached the end of its service life. Replace the
rechargeable battery with a new one. When removing and replacing the rechargeable battery, cover
the terminals of the old rechargeable battery with tape to avoid creating a short in the battery.
Printer
DO NOT use the printer where its use is prohibited, such as on an airplane. This could affect the
airplane's equipment, resulting in an accident.
DO NOT use the printer in special environments, such as near medical equipment. Electromagnetic
waves may cause the medical equipment to malfunction.
DO NOT insert foreign objects into the printer or its connectors and ports, otherwise fire, electric
shock, or damage may result.
If foreign objects are dropped into the printer, immediately turn it off, disconnect the AC adapter or
Car adapter from the electrical outlet, and then contact Brother customer service. If you continue to
operate the printer, fire, electric shock, or damage may result.
DO NOT operate, charge, or store the printer in the following locations, otherwise leaking, fire,
electric shock, or damage may result.
Near water, such as in a bathroom or near a water heater, or in an extremely humid location
In a location where it is exposed to rain or moisture
In an extremely dusty location
In an extremely hot location, such as near open flames, heaters, or in direct sunlight
