Abstract
A method is used for monitoring a battery pack to check claims under guarantee that could possibly be invalid due to incorrect opening of the battery pack. The battery pack includes at least one electrochemical cell. When the battery pack is monitored, whether the battery pack has been opened is detected and any details relating to an event of opening are recorded in a non-erasable storage medium.
