WARNINGS FOR BATTERIES

  • Batteries must not be exposed to heat sources such as fire, sun or similar sources; remove batteries if they start to heat up or if the appliance is not used for a long time
  • Batteries must be installed correctly in the appropriate battery compartment;
  • Dispose of batteries that have reached the end of life or have been damaged in accordance with the national regulations in force and listed below.
  • In case of loss of battery fluid, remove all batteries, preventing the spilled liquid from coming into contact with the skin or clothing. If the liquid from the battery comes into contact with the skin or clothing, wash the skin with water immediately. Before inserting new batteries, thoroughly clean the battery compartment with a paper towel cloth, or follow the battery manufacturer’s recommendations for cleaning.

Misuse of batteries can cause them to leak, overheat or explode. This liquid is corrosive and can be toxic. It can cause burns of the skin and eyes, and is harmful to swallow. To reduce the risk of injury:

  • Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
  • Do not heat, open, puncture, cut or throw batteries into fire.
  • Do not mix old and new batteries or bateries of different types
  • Do not leave metal objects that may come into contact with the battery terminals and therefore may heat up and/ or cause burns

INFORMATION FOR THE CORRECT DISPOSAL OF BATTERIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH EUROPEAN DIRECTIVE 2006/66/EC AND CHANGES INTRODUCED BY DIRECTIVE 2013/56/EU Replace batteries when they are depleted. At the end of their life, batteries must be disposed of separately from unsorted waste. They must be taken to designated recycling centres or returned to a retailer providing this service. Separate disposal of batteries prevents potential negative effects on the environment and human health due to inadequate disposal, and also allows their constituent materials to be recovered and recycled, resulting in significant savings in terms of energy and resources. In order to highlight the obligation regarding separate disposal, the battery carries the crossed-out dustbin symbol. Illegal disposal of the product by the user may lead to administrative sanctions being applied as per current regulations.
