6.6 Using NiMH rechargeable batteries
Warning!
To avoid potential hazards that could cause
injuries or damage the equipment, always note
the following:
• Avoid short circuits.
The battery poles should never be allowed to come into
contact with any metal objects, as this could cause a
short circuit. A short circuit can cause the battery to
overheat, in which case it could leak electrolyte and
possibly cause an explosion or fire.
If electrolyte does leak out, avoid any contact with skin,
eyes and mucous membranes in order to prevent
injuries. In the event of any contact with the electrolyte,
rinse the affected areas with plenty of clean fresh water
and immediately seek medical attention.
• The built-in battery may be replaced only by a genuine
replacement battery. If the battery is defective, please
contact the after sales service (see "13. Warranty" on
page 60). Do not use any other battery than the original
Tigex.
• Never try to open the battery, bend the contacts or pull
them off. Do not throw the battery onto the floor or knock
nails into it.
Damaging the battery could cause an internal short
circuit, in which case it could leak electrolyte and
possibly cause an explosion or fire.
• Use only the supplied mains adapter to charge the
battery.
Using the wrong mains adapter could overcharge it,
causing it to overheat and explode.
• NiMH batteries must be charged or stored only on
heatproof, non-combustible surfaces.
• NiMH batteries must be charged only under
supervision so that you can intervene in good time in
the event of a failure.
• NiMH batteries contains toxic substances. For this
reason, always observe the regulations for its disposal
given in "12.3 Disposable/rechargeable batteries" on
page 60.
