What is the exception for the Lithium Battery Mark under Section II?

• A. The completed Lithium Battery Mark requirement does not apply to packages containing only button cell batteries installed in equipment (including circuit boards) or consignments of two packages or less where each package contains no more than 4 cells or 2 batteries installed in equipment.
• B. The mark is always required regardless of packaging.
• C. The mark never applies to button cells.
• D. The mark is only for shipments containing two packages or less.

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is when the lithium battery mark can be omitted under Section II. The exception is that you don’t have to apply the Lithium Battery Mark if the package contains only button cell batteries installed in equipment (including batteries that are part of circuit boards or devices), or if you’re sending two packages or fewer and each package contains no more than four cells or two batteries installed in equipment. This reflects that for small shipments or batteries already embedded in a device, the additional mark isn’t always needed. If you go beyond those limits, the mark would be required to warn handlers about the lithium content.
