• If used improperly, batteries may
explode or leak and cause damage or
injury. In the interest of safety, please
read and observe the following pre-
cautions (page 12).
• Carefully follow the installation
instructions for batteries, and make
sure you observe the correct polar-
ity.
• Remove the batteries whenever the
unit is to remain unused for an
extended period of time.
• If a battery has leaked, use a soft
piece of cloth or paper towel to
wipe all remnants of the discharge
from the battery compartment.
Then install new batteries. To avoid
inflammation of the skin, make
sure that none of the battery dis-
charge gets onto your hands or
skin. Exercise the utmost caution
so that none of the discharge gets
near your eyes. Immediately rinse
the affected area with running
water if any of the discharge has
entered the eyes.

• Never keep batteries together with
metallic objects such as ballpoint
pens, necklaces, hairpins, etc.

compliance with whatever regula-
tions for their safe disposal that may
be observed in the region in which
you live.
