Replace the batteries when the low battery icon flashes on the display, the sound distorts, or the volume weakens.
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
Caution: If you do not plan to use the SCP-103 for a month or more, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
Important: At the end of a nickel-cadmium battery’s useful life, it must be recycled or disposed of properly. Contact your local, county, or state hazardous waste management authori- ties for information on recycling or disposal programs in your area. Some options that might be available are: municipal curbside collection, drop-off boxes at retailers such as your local RadioShack store, recycling collection centers, and mail-back programs.
