3.6. Handling batteries
WARNING!
Risk of explosion!
Batteries may contain combustible materials and leak, heat up excessively, ignite or
even explode.
Avoid improper handling of the batteries to prevent damage to your device and
your health.
Please follow the safety advice below closely:
– Keep batteries away from children.
Consult a doctor immediately if batteries are swallowed.
– Never charge batteries (unless they are designed to be recharged).
– Never discharge batteries by means of high power output.
– Never short-circuit the batteries.
– Never expose the batteries to excessive heat (such as direct sunlight, fire or similar).
– Do not dismantle or deform the batteries.
You could injure your hands or fingers, or battery fluid could get into your eyes or onto
your skin. If you do come into contact with battery fluid, rinse the affected area with
plenty of water and consult a doctor immediately.
– Avoid heavy impacts and vibrations.
– Always observe the correct polarity.
– Take care to ensure that the plus (+) and minus (−) poles are correctly inserted to avoid
short circuits.
– Do not mix up new and old batteries or different types of batteries.
This could cause your remote control to malfunction. In addition, the weaker batteries
would discharge too much.
– Remove used batteries from the device immediately. There is an increased risk of leak-
age with flat batteries.
– Remove the batteries from the remote control if it is not going to be used for a long
period of time.
– Replace all used batteries in the remote control at the same time with new batteries of
the same type.
– Cover the contacts of the batteries with sticky tape if you want to store or dispose of them.
– If necessary, clean the battery and device contacts before insertion.
– If the batteries have leaked, wear protective gloves and clean the contacts thoroughly.
