•Incorrect use of batteries may result in such hazards as leakage and bursting. Observe the following precautions: -Never use new and old batteries together.

-Insert the plus and minus sides of the batteries properly according to the marks in the battery case.

-Batteries with the same shape may have different voltages. Do not use different batteries together.

-When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental public institution’s rules that apply in your country or area.

-Do not use or store batteries in direct sunlight or other excessively hot place, such as inside a car or near a heater. This can cause batteries to leak, overheat, explode or catch fire. It can also reduce the life or performance of batteries.
