 n buying products with lithium-ion batteries\, look for safety certificati
 on marks such as UL\, ETL\, or CSA. Always use the cords that come with th
 e product\, follow manufacturer instructions\, and charge devices on hard 
 surfaces. Don't overcharge devices and unplug when fully charged. Don't th
 row lithium-ion batteries in regular trash or recycling as they could star
 t fires. Visit call2recycle.org to find proper recycling locations.\n• E
