Warning
Do not place a block of rechargeable batteries with non-rechargeable batteries.
If you wish to change the batteries, visit an authorized Service Center.
The batteries are designed to be used indoors only. Do not immerse them in water. Handle the
batteries with care. Do not place the batteries in your mouth. Do not let the batteries come in
contact with other metal objects such as rings, nails or screws. Be careful not to provoke internal
short-circuits in the batteries by inserting metal objects through their extremities. If a short-circuit
does occur, the temperature of the batteries could rise dangerously, causing serious burns or even
catching fire. If the batteries start leaking, do not rub your eyes or mucous membranes. Wash your
