Tenganisha pakiti ya betri kutoka kwa kifaa cha umeme kabla ya kufanya marekebisho yoyote, kubadilisha vifaa, au kuhifadhi vifaa vya umeme.
- Matumizi na Utunzaji wa Kifurushi cha Betri: Chaji tena ukitumia chaja iliyobainishwa na mtengenezaji. Chaja ambayo inafaa kwa aina moja ya pakiti ya betri inaweza kuleta hatari ya moto inapotumiwa na pakiti nyingine ya betri. Tumia zana za nguvu zilizo na pakiti maalum za betri pekee.
