appliance or heat source, such as a hair
dryer or microwave oven.
• Use care when handling a charged
battery: Particularly when placing it
inside a pocket, purse, or other
container with metal objects. Contact
with metal objects (e.g., jewelry, keys,
beaded chains) could complete an
electrical circuit (short circuit), causing
the battery to become very hot, which
could cause damage or injury.
Promptly dispose of used batteries in
accordance with local regulations.
Contact your local recycling center for
proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a
fire because they may explode.
