Battery Replacement and Disposal
The battery will eventually lose the ability to hold a charge.
Depending on the amount of use, and varying conditions, the
battery should operate for one to three years. Follow these steps
to replace and dispose the battery.
Important! Recycle the dead battery responsibly. The battery
contains lead acid (electrolyte) and must be disposed of properly
and legally. It is illegal in most areas to incinerate lead acid
batteries or dispose of them in landfills. Take it to a federal or
state-approved lead acid battery recycler, such as an authorized
service center or your local automotive battery retailer. Do not
throw the battery away with your regular household trash!
