2. Safe handling of batteries: After confirming that the power has been completely disconnected, wear protective equipment such as insulated gloves and goggles, and carefully move the battery to a well ventilated and safe area away from flammable materials. Avoid direct contact with exposed parts of the battery to prevent electric shock or burns.

3. Inspection and evaluation: Carefully inspect the appearance of the battery for any signs of damage, deformation, or leakage. Assess the possible impacts caused by short circuits, such as decreased battery performance, internal damage, etc. If the battery condition is poor or there is a safety hazard, do not attempt to repair it yourself. Instead, contact professional maintenance personnel for handling or replacement.
