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 re 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 re, injury or stains around them.
When throwing used batteries away, follow the disposal instructions •
indicated on the batteries and the local disposal laws. When you store or
dispose of batteries, isolate their terminals with insulation tape or something
like that to prevent them from contacting other batteries or metallic objects.
