rather a sensitive plastic film only.
• Never short-circuit the contacts of the rechargeable battery. Do not throw
the battery or the product into fire. There is a danger of fire and explosion!
• Charge the rechargeable battery regularly, even if you do are not using the
product. Due to the rechargeable battery technology being used, you do
not need to discharge the rechargeable battery first.
• Never charge the rechargeable battery of the product unattended.
• When charging, place the product on a surface that is not heat-sensitive. It
is normal that a certain amount of heat is generated during charging.
c) Miscellaneous

an expert or at a qualified shop.
