• Check that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries/rechargeable bat-

risk of them being swallowed by children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor
immediately.

when getting into contact with skin, therefore, use suitable protective gloves.
• Make sure that the batteries are not short-circuited, dismantled or thrown into
fire. There is a risk of explosion!
• 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.
• Remove the batteries when you do not use the device over a period of time (e.g.
