General Instructions Relevant To Batteries And Accumulators - MC Crypt DD6 Bedienungsanleitung

6. General instructions relevant to batteries and accumulators

• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must be kept out of the reach of children.
• Do not let batteries/rechargeable batteries lie around openly. There is a risk of batteries being
swallowed by children or pets. In such a case, seek instant medical attention!
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, taken apart or thrown into fire. There
is a risk of explosion!
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries may cause acid burns when coming into
contact with skin, therefore use suitable protective gloves.
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of fire and explosion! Only charge rechargeable
batteries which are intended for this purpose; use suitable rechargeable battery chargers.
• Please observe correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) when inserting the batteries/rechargeable
batteries. Danger of fire and explosion!
• If the device is not used for a longer period of time (e.g. storage), take out the inserted batteries (or
rechargeable batteries) to avoid damage from leaking batteries/rechargeable batteries.
Recharge the rechargeable battery about every 3 months, because otherwise there may a so called
deep discharge because of the be self-discharge, which makes the rechargeable batteries useless.
• Always exchange the entire set of batteries or rechargeable batteries. Do not mix full batteries/
rechargeable batteries with half-full ones Always use batteries or rechargeable batteries of the same
type and manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries! Either use four batteries or four rechargeable
batteries.
The operation of the device with rechargeable batteries instead of batteries is possible.
However, the low voltage (batteries=1.5V, rechargeable batteries=1.2V) and the lower capacity of
rechargeable batteries does lead to a decrease of the operating time.
When inserting batteries, we recommend the use of high-quality alkaline batteries.
Due to the high power consumption, we recommend using the enclosed power pack for power supply.
