3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is
corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be
toxic if swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the
batteries with conduction materials such as rings, bracelets, and
keys. The batteries or conductors may overheat and cause
burns.
5. Do not attempt to recharge the batteries identified for use with
this product. The batteries may leak corrosive electrolyte or
explode.
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the batteries identified for use with
this product by heating them. Sudden release of the battery
electrolyte may occur causing burns or irritation to eyes or skin.
7. When replacing batteries, all batteries should be replaced at the
same time. Mixing fresh and discharged batteries could
increase internal cell pressure and rupture the discharged
batteries.
8. When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity or
direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of the batteries
can cause charging and that may result in leakage or explosion.
9. Remove the batteries from this product if the product will not be
used for a long period of time (several months or more) since
during this time the batteries could leak in the product.
10. Discard "dead" batteries as soon as possible since "dead"
batteries are more likely to leak in a product.
11. Do not store this product, in high-temperature areas. Batteries
that are stored in a freezer or refrigerator for the purpose of
extending shelf life should be protected from condensation
during storage and defrosting. Batteries should be stabilized at
room temperature prior to use after cold storage.
