Battery-Powered Devices
These precautions apply to all products that use rechargeable or disposable batteries.
Improper use of batteries may result in battery fluid leakage, overheating, or explosion. Released battery
fluid is corrosive and may be toxic. It can cause skin and eye burns, and is harmful if swallowed.
To reduce the risk of injury:
● Keep batteries out of reach of children.
● Do not heat, open, puncture, mutilate, or dispose of batteries in fire.
● Do not mix new and old batteries or batteries of different types (for example, carbon-zinc and
alkaline batteries).
● Do not allow metal objects to touch the battery terminals on the device; they can become hot
and cause burns.
● Remove the batteries if they are worn out or before storing your device for an extended period of time.
● Always remove old, weak, or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or dispose of them in accordance
with Local and National Disposal Regulations.
● If a battery leaks, remove all batteries, taking care to keep the leaked fluid from touching your skin
or clothes. If fluid from the battery comes into contact with skin or clothes, flush skin with water
immediately. Before inserting new batteries, thoroughly clean the battery compartment with a damp
paper towel, or follow the battery manufacturer’s recommendations for cleanup.
Disposable (non-rechargeable) batteries only:
●
Caution
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Use and replace only with correct
size and type (alkaline, zinc-carbon, or zinc-chloride) of batteries.
Rechargeable batteries only:
●
Caution
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Use and replace only with the same
type and rating as the batteries provided.
● Charge only with the recharger provided with the product.
