Handling the Batteries
• Improper or incorrect use of batteries may cause corrosion or battery leakage,
which could cause fire, personal injury or damage to property.
• Always remove the batteries if worn out, when storing the radio for more that 30
days or using AC power continually as the batteries may leak chemicals that can
badly damage the electronic components and the cabinet.
• Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause skin burns or
other personal injury.
• When the batteries are exhausted, the unit will not function. Replace both batteries
at the same time with new ones.
• Use only the types of the batteries which are indicated in this manual.
• Do not install new batteries with used ones and do not mix different types of
batteries.
• Do not dispose of the used batteries as domestic waste. Dispose of them in
accordance with the local regulations.
