Using and handling batteries

Please note the following safety instructions for handling batteries.
Batteries can leak or explode, releasing toxic or corrosive substanc-
es, resulting in injury or significant damage to objects.
!
Never charge non-rechargeable batteries, as this poses an explo-
sion hazard as well as damage resulting from leaking acid.
!
Charge rechargeable batteries using only chargers that are suita-
ble and that have been tested for this purpose. Otherwise, the
battery may pose a fire hazard.
!
Charge batteries only at ambient temperatures between 0 to
+40°C / 32 to +104°F.
!
Do not bridge the contacts of batteries with electrically conduc-
tive material and do not plunge batteries into water or other liq-
uids. A short circuit between the battery contacts can cause burns
and/or fire.
!
Do not open, modify or destroy batteries, and do not subject
them to unnecessary jolts, direct sunlight, fire, microwaves, ex-
treme pressure or temperatures above 50°C / 122°F. Do not
store batteries in hot locations.
!
Do not use batteries that are leaky, discolored, deformed or are
damaged in any other way.
!
Improper use can cause fluid leakage. Leaking battery fluid can
cause skin irritation or burns. Avoid contact with leaked fluid. In
case of accidental contact, rinse with water and seek medical as-
sistance.
!
Improper handling poses the risk of short-circuit or even explo-
sion. Harmful vapors can escape and irritate the airways. Seek
fresh air, and get medical attention if complaints persist.
!
Dispose of depleted batteries and defective equipment
according to statutory regulations.
