CAUTIONS ABOUT BATTERIES
This product uses batteries. Misuse of batteries could cause a leak, rupture or other trouble.
Always abide by the following precautions when using batteries.
• Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries. The batteries could rupture or leak, causing
fire or injury.
• When installing batteries, pay attention to the polarity indications (plus/minus (
¥
/
^
)
orientation), and install them correctly in the battery compartment as indicated. Putting
them in backward could make the batteries rupture or leak, causing fire, injury or stains
around them.
• When you store or dispose batteries, isolate their terminals with insulation tape or
something like that to prevent them from contacting other batteries or metallic objects.
• When throwing used batteries away, follow the disposal instructions indicated on the
batteries and the local disposal laws.
• Do not use batteries other than those specified. Do not mix and use new and old
batteries or different types of batteries together. The batteries could rupture or leak,
causing fire, injury or stains around them.
• Do not carry or store batteries together with small metal objects. The batteries could
short, causing leak, rupture or other trouble.
• Do not heat or disassemble batteries. Do not put them in fire or water. Batteries could
rupture or leak, causing fire, injury or stains around them.
• If the battery fluid leaks, wipe away any fluid on the battery case before inserting new
batteries. If the battery fluid gets in an eye, it could cause loss of eyesight. If fluid does
enter an eye, wash it out thoroughly with clean water without rubbing the eye and then
consult a doctor immediately. If the fluid gets on a person’s body or clothing, it could
cause skin injuries or burns. If this should happen, wash it off with clean water and then
consult a doctor immediately.
• The unit power should be off when you install and replace batteries.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the unit for a long time. Batteries could
rupture or leak, causing fire, injury or stains around them. If the battery fluid leaks, wipe
away any fluid on the battery compartment before inserting new batteries.
• Do not disassemble a battery. The acid inside the battery could harm skin or clothing.
