SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT:
Always follow these instructions. Failure to do so can result in dangerous exposure to laser radiation.

• Never look directly at the laser beam.
• Never point the laser beam at reflective surfaces, people or animals. Even low-power laser beams can injure the eyes.
• Never open the laser module.
• Never modify the product in any way, for example, to increase the power of the laser beam.
• The manufacturer can. accept liability for any personal injury and/or material damage resulting from failure to follow these safety instructions.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERIES
If a battery is inserted in an electrical product when the power switch is switched on there is a risk of personal injury and/or material damage.

• Incorrect use of the product can result in battery leakage. Avoid contact with batten/ fluid. On contact with battery fluid, rinse immediately with plenty of fresh water. If you get battery fluid in your eyes, rinse your eyes with clean water for at least 10 minutes and then seek medical attention immediately.
• Battery fluid can cause skin irritation and/ or burns.
• Do not expose batteries to heat, direct sunlight, naked flames, etc.
• Never attempt to charge batteries that are not rechargeable — the risk of explosion.
• Store batteries out of the reach of children and pets. Never short-circuit batteries, or attempt to open or dismantle batteries
• Seek medical attention immediately if anyone has swallowed a battery.
• If necessary, clean the battery terminals and product terminals before inserting new batteries.
• Insert the batteries with the correct polarity.
• Remove discharged batteries from the product at once, otherwise, there is a risk of battery leakage.
• Replace all the batteries at the same time.
• Only use batteries of the recommended type — do not mix different types of batteries, or new and old batteries.
