product.
• The supply terminals are not to be short-
circuited.
• Dispose of battery(ies) safely.

Battery Performance Note:
For best performance use regular or high-

with standard (carbon-zinc) batteries for initial use
and/or demonstration purposes, we recommend
replacing them with alkaline batteries when
necessary. Battery life may vary depending on
battery brand.
