generates toxic fumes which may present a health hazard. Batteries may explode if damaged or exposed to
very high temperatures, causing poisoning, burns, acid burns or environmental pollution. Careless disposal
may permit unauthorized and improper use of the equipment. This may result in serious personal injury, injury
to third parties and pollution of the environment.
CAUTION
Dispose of defective batteries without delay. Keep them out of reach of children. Do not attempt to open or
dismantle batteries and do not dispose of them by incineration.
