Currently all Panasonic lithium batteries are regulated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) under
Special Provisions 188 and 230. These regulations will stay in effect until January 1, 2010 when Special Provisions
188 and 230 will be updated
If you build any of our lithium cells into a battery pack, you must also assure that they are tested in accordance with
the UN Model Regulations, Manual of Test and Criteria. Part III, subsection 38.3.
Effective December 29, 2004, the DOT requires that the outside of each package that contains lithium batteries,
regardless of size or number of batteries, be labeled with the following statement: “LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES-
FORBIDDEN FOR TRANSPORT ABOARD PASSENGER AIRCRAFT”. The labeling requirement covers
shipments via highway, rail, vessel or cargo-only aircraft and covers all shipments inside, into or out of the US. The
label must be in contrasting color and the letters must be 12 mm (0.5 in) in height for packages weighing more than
30 Kg and 6 mm (0.25 in) in height for packages weighting less than 30 Kg.
If you plan on transporting any untested prototype battery packs contact your Panasonic Sales Representative for
regulatory information.

General Recommendations

O
CAUTION: Risk of fire, explosion and burns. Do not recharge, crush, heat above 212
F (100
C) or incinerate.
Fire Safety
In case of fire, you can use a Class “D” fire extinguisher or other smothering agent such as Lith-X, copper powder or dry
sand. If you use water, use enough to smother the fire. Using an insufficient amount of water will only make the fire
worse. Cooling the exterior of the batteries will help prevent rupturing. Burning of these batteries will generate toxic
and corrosive lithium hydroxide fumes. Fire fighters should use self-contained breathing apparatus.
