This entry only applies to lithium ion batteries or lithium metal batteries installed in a cargo transport unit and designed only to provide power external to the cargo transport unit. The lithium batteries shall meet the requirements of 2.9.4.1 to.7 and contain the necessary systems to prevent overcharge and overdischarge between the batteries. The batteries shall be securely attached to the interior structure of the cargo transport unit (e.g. by means of placement in racks, cabinets, etc.) in such a manner as to prevent short circuits, accidental operation, and significant movement relative to the cargo transport unit under the shocks, loadings and vibrations normally incident to transport. Dangerous goods necessary for the safe and proper operation of the cargo transport unit (e.g. fire-extinguishing systems and air-conditioning systems), shall be properly secured to or installed in the cargo transport unit and are not otherwise subject to this Code. Dangerous goods not necessary for the safe and proper operation of the cargo transport unit shall not be transported within the cargo transport unit. The batteries inside the cargo transport unit are not subject to marking or labelling requirements. The cargo transport unit shall display the UN number in accordance with 5.3.2.1.2 and be placarded on two opposing sides in accordance with 5.3.1.1.2.
Reference preview for Entry 1. Confirm the cargo classification and any conditions in the special provisions.
Lithium battery label 9A
⚠ Operator override: UN3536 is a CTU-level lithium battery entry in the Code (SP389 provides no package label for batteries in the unit); the 9A lithium battery label is output here on the operator's explicit instruction of 2026-09-02, who accepts responsibility for compliance.
