Safety instructions for batteries
DANGER TO LIFE! Batteries can be swallowed,
which can prove fatal. Consult a doctor immediately if anyone
swallows a battery.
EXPLOSION HAZARD! Never recharge nonrecharge-
able batteries, short-circuit and / or open batteries. This can
cause them to overheat, burn or burst.
Never throw batteries into fire or water. The batteries may explode.
Immediately remove depleted batteries from the device; otherwise
there will be an increased risk of leakage!
Always replace all the batteries at the same time and insert batteries
of the same type.
Do not use different types of batteries or mix used and new batter-
ies together.
Batteries do not belong in household refuse. Dispose of used batteries
in an environmentally friendly manner.
Consumers are under a legal obligation to dispose of batteries in
the proper way.
Keep the battery out of the reach of children, do not dispose of the
battery in fire, do not short-circuit it, and do not take it apart.
Failure to observe these instructions may result in the battery discharging
beyond its end voltage, which poses a risk of leakage. If the battery
in your instrument has leaked, have it removed immediately to prevent
damage to the instrument.
