Navigation GmbH for any resulting consequences.
This product works with a lithium ion battery. Do not use it in a damp, wet and/or corrosive
environment. You must not place, store or leave your product in or near sources of heat, in
locations with high temperatures or in strong sunlight, in a microwave oven or pressure
vessel, nor expose it to any temperatures above 60 ºC (140 ºF). If you do not follow these
guidelines, this might cause acid to leak out of the lithium ion battery, cause it to become hot,
explode or ignite and cause injuries and/or damage. You must not pierce, open or dismantle
the battery. If acid leaks out and you come into contact with the leaked liquids, rinse off the
contact points thoroughly with water and consult a doctor immediately. For reasons of safety
and for prolonging the battery life, it does not recharge at low (below 0 ºC/32 ºF) or high
(above 45 ºC/110 ºF) temperatures.

Disposal of the battery
Duty to supply information according to battery legislation (BattV)
Batteries must not be disposed of in household waste. It is the duty of the user to return used
batteries. Please only dispose of batteries via specialised dealers or at battery collection
points. In this way, you make a positive contribution to environmental protection. Since 1998,
German battery legislation obligates all citizens to dispose of used batteries exclusively via
the retail or at collection points specially equipped for this purpose (statutory obligation to
return). It is the duty of the retail and of manufacturers to take back these batteries free of
charge and to correctly recycle them or to dispose of them as hazardous waste
(statutory obligation to take back).
