Caution! In the unlikely event of a failure in the internal protection circuitry there is a risk of an 
explosion  when  charging  fully  or  partially  discharged  battery.  Replace  battery  when  it  no 
longer has sufficient charge for unit operation. Control the battery before use if the device has 
not been used for an extended period of time. 

 

Caution!  Risk  of  explosion  if  battery  is  replaced  with  an  incorrect  type.  Dispose  of  used 
batteries according to the instructions!
