Types of batteries with which operation is not
guaranteed
•
Panasonic offers no guarantees that the unit will operate properly
when any of the batteries listed above are used. Furthermore, use
of these batteries may result in electrolyte leakage, power failure,
risk of explosion etc.
∫
Batteries with shapes that cannot be used
•
Installing batteries with irregular shapes in the unit may cause
electrolyte leakage, heat generation and even rupturing of the
batteries themselves.
•
Some batteries sold on the market have part or all of their jackets
missing: Under no circumstances should such batteries be used.
(Refer to the figure below.)
∫
Handling the batteries
Mishandling of batteries may cause electrolyte leakage, heat
generation and even rupturing of the batteries themselves.
Note the following cautions:
Ni-Cd batteries
Nickel-manganese batteries
Nickel Hydrogen batteries
Lithium batteries
Oxyride (oxy-nickel-hydroxide) dry batteries
•
Batteries (bare batteries) with
no external jackets or batteries
with parts of their jackets
missing
•
Batteries whose
-
electrode
is flat
•
Do not expose batteries to water or seawater or allow their
terminal areas to become wet.
•
Do not remove their external jackets or damage them in any
way.
•
Do not drop the batteries, knock them into other objects or
subject them to any other kind of strong impact.
•
Stop using the batteries as soon as you notice any electrolyte
leakage, deformation, discoloration or any other such trouble.
•
Do not store batteries in locations where the temperature and/or
humidity levels are high.
•
Keep batteries out of the reach of infants and small children.
•
Remove the battery from the unit when you do not intend to use
the unit for a prolonged period.
•
The battery may be hot immediately after the unit has been
used. Before removing it from the unit, turn off the unit’s power
and wait until the temperature of the battery has dropped.
•
At low temperatures [under 10 °C (50
o
F)], the performance of
the battery will deteriorate and the operating time of the unit will
be sharply reduced. The operating duration of batteries tends to
be shorter particularly when alkaline/manganese dry batteries
are used so warm them in your pocket before use. When
warming batteries in your pocket, avoid direct contact with
cigarette lighters and other metal objects as well as with pocket/
body warmers.
•
The operating time of the unit may also be sharply reduced if the
+
and
-
electrodes of the battery are exposed to oils from the
skin or other forms of dirt. Before installing the battery, wipe the
+
and
-
electrodes carefully using a soft, dry cloth.
