BATTERY SAFETY
Only use Alkaline or rechargeable batteries.
If the batteries leak, remove them with a cloth and dispose of them accordingly. Ensure that
leaking battery acid does not come into contact with skin and eyes. If you do get battery acid in
your eyes, flush them thoroughly with lots of water and consult a physician immediately! If battery
acid comes into contact with your skin, wash the affected area with lots of water and soap.
Danger of explosion!
Batteries must not be charged or reactivated by other means, taken apart,
thrown in the fire or short-circuited.
Do not expose batteries to extreme temperatures such as from direct sunlight or fire. Do not place
the appliance on a heater. Leaking battery acid can cause damage.
Caution!
There is a danger of explosion if the batteries are inserted incorrectly. Use only the same
battery types with the corresponding technical data to replace them.
Do not use old and new batteries or batteries of a different type or that are from different
manufacturers together.
Always insert batteries in accordance with the correct polarity (+ and -) as illustrated in the battery
compartment.
Batteries are life-threatening if swallowed. Store all batteries out of the reach of small children and
domestic animals. Seek medical help immediately if batteries are swallowed.
Do not allow children to change batteries without adult supervision.
If the battery compartment door does not secure closely, stop using the appliance and keep it away
from the children.
If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek
immediate medical attention.
If the device is not to be used for an extended period of time, then the batteries should be removed,
as the device could become damaged should they leak.
If the device functions weaken, replace all batteries.
Remove the batteries prior to disposing of the device.
Batteries do not belong in household waste!
Expired batteries must be disposed of in an
environmentally friendly way and according to the applicable legal regulations.
