5. Notes on batteries and rechargeable batteries
• Batteries have no place in the hands of children.
• Please observe correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) when inserting the battery.
• Do not leave batteries lying around. Pets or small children might swallow them. If swallowed, consult a
doctor immediately.
• Leaking or damaged batteries can lead to caustic burning of the skin. Therefore, use suitable protec-
tive gloves.
• Make sure that the batteries are neither short-circuited nor thrown into a fire. There is a risk of explo-
sion!
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of explosion! Only charge rechargeable batteries
which are intended for this purpose; use a suitable battery charger.
• If not used for a longer period (e.g. in case of storage), remove the inserted battery. If batteries are too
old, they may leak and cause damage to the product, which leads to the cancellation of the warran-
ty/guarantee.
• For the environmentally friendly disposal of batteries and rechargeable batteries, please read the
chapter “Disposal”.
