Stop using your device right away if the battery smells strange, is warm to the touch, makes popping noises, changes in shape or color, or if you see smoke. If it is safe, move the device away from anything that can catch fire. A damaged battery can overheat and start a fire.

Did you know there must be a minimum of 3 feet of clear space around and 6 1/2 feet above fire hydrants? This allows firefighters easy access to the connections🚒If you have a fire hydrant abutting your property, please keep it clear of grass, shrubs, and trees🌾🌲 And remember, there is no parking within 15 of a fire hydrant. Thank you!🙂
