Safety Guidelines
Follow the instructions in this document carefully for your own safety, the safety of others, and to maximize battery life
and performance.
WARNING!
• Do not use the Battery Pack if the Battery Pack casing is broken or if a Battery Pack emits an unusual odor, smoke,
or excessive heat or leaks any substance. Avoid contact with any substance seeping from the Battery Pack.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets. Exposure to Battery Pack voltage could result in death or serious injury.
• Unplug or disconnect your Segway Personal Transporter (Segway PT) from AC power before removing or installing
Battery Packs or performing any service. Never work on any part of your Segway PT when it is plugged into AC power.
You risk serious bodily injury from electric shock as well as damage to your Segway PT.
• The cells within the Battery Packs contain toxic substances. Do not attempt to open Battery Packs. Do not insert any
object into the Battery Packs or use any device to pry at the Battery Pack casing. If you insert an object into any of
the Battery Packs’ ports or openings you could suffer electric shock, injury, burns, or cause a fire. Attempting to open
the Battery Pack casing will damage the casing and could release toxic and harmful substances, and will render the
pack unusable.
• Observe and follow all safety information on the warning label found on the Battery Packs.
• Failure to charge the Battery Packs could result in permanent damage to them. Left unplugged, the Battery Packs
could fully discharge over time, causing permanent damage.
• Use only charging devices approved by Segway and never attempt to bypass or override their charging protection
circuits.
• Do not submerge the Battery Packs or powerbase in water. Do not use a power washer or high-pressure hose to
clean a Segway PT. Avoid getting water into the charge port. Avoid exposing the Segway PT to heavy downpours or
extended periods of heavy rain.
• As with all rechargeable batteries, do not charge near flammable materials.
