c) Rechargeable batteries
• Correct polarity must be observed while inserting the rechargeable battery.
• The rechargeable battery should be removed from the device if it is not used
for a long period of time to avoid damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged
rechargeable batteries might cause acid burns when in contact with skin, therefore
use suitable protective gloves to handle corrupted (rechargeable) batteries.
• Rechargeable batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave re-
chargeable batteries lying around, as there is risk, that children or pets swallow
them.
•
Rechargeable batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire.
Never recharge nonrechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!

Solar charging
When using for the first time or after prolonged periods of low sunlight, you should fully re
-
charge the battery.
• The product must be switched on for the battery to charge.

During extended periods without sufficient sunlight for solar charging, it is possible that the
rechargeable battery will completely discharge. Rechargeable batteries can get damaged if
left with no charge for some time. It is recommended to switch the power off so the battery
does not completely discharge.
