Notes on handling batteries
• Keep batteries out of the reach of chil-
dren. Children can put batteries in their
mouth and swallow them. This can
cause severe harm to their health. In
this case, consult a physician immedi-
ately!
• Normal batteries must not be re-
charged, heated or thrown into an open
flame (danger of explosion!).
• Always replace all batteries at the same
time and use batteries of the same ty-
pe.
• Leaking batteries can damage the unit.
If you do not intend to use the unit for a
prolonged period, remove the batteries
from the battery compartment.
• Leaky or damaged batteries can cause
caustic injuries if they touch the skin. In
this case, wear suitable safety gloves.
