Precautions

Observe the following precautions when handling and charging the batteries:

•Do not attempt to use or charge the batteries when they are exposed to temperatures below –10º C (15º F) or above 40º C (105º F). (Most batteries of this type have an internal safety device that prevents them from operating outside of this temperature range.)

•Charge the batteries only with a charger intended for this type of battery or inside the Counter.

•Do not allow the battery terminals to contact any conductive surfaces.

•Avoid discharging the batteries completely.

•Recharge the batteries as soon as possible after use.

•Handle the batteries carefully to avoid internal damage and/or damage to the casings. Do not drop or throw the batteries or otherwise expose them to strong physical shock.

•Do not incinerate the batteries or subject them to extremely high temperatures.
