WARNING: Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause injury or fire. To reduce this risk:

Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.

Do not short battery terminals.

Do not charge batteries.

Remove dead battery immediately and dispose of per local codes.

Do not dispose of batteries in fire.

Keep batteries out of reach of children.

Do not mix old and new batteries.

Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the same brand and type.

Remove battery if the device will not be used for several months.

Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
