(Rechargeable) batteries
- Correct polarity must be observed while inserting the (rechargeable) battery.
- The (rechargeable) batteries should be removed from the device if it is not used for a long period to avoid damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged (rechargeable) batteries might cause acid burns when in contact with skin, therefore use suitable
- protective gloves to handle corrupted (rechargeable) batteries.
- (Rechargeable) batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave (rechargeable) batteries lying around, as there is a risk, that children or pets swallow them.
- All (rechargeable) batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing old and new (rechargeable) batteries in the device can lead to (rechargeable) battery leakage and device damage.
- (Rechargeable) batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire. Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!
