1.Use only the size and type of batteries mentioned in the Owner’s Manual.
2.Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The cells may explode.
3.Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

8.When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity or direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of batteries can cause charging, and that may result in leakage or explosion.
9.Remove the batteries from this product if the product will not be used for a long period of time; batteries could leak in the product.
