If the battery fluid leaks, wipe away any fluid on
•
the battery case before inserting new batteries. If
the battery fluid gets in an eye, it could cause loss
of eyesight. If fluid does enter an eye, wash it out
thoroughly with clean water without rubbing the eye
and then consult a doctor immediately. If the fluid
gets on a person's body or clothing, it could cause
skin injuries or burns. If this should happen, wash
it off with clean water and then consult a doctor
immediately.
Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use
•
the unit for a long time. Batteries could rupture or
leak, causing fire, injury or stains around them. If
the battery fluid leaks, wipe away any fluid on the
battery compartment before inserting new batteries.
