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.
