ALKALINE BATTERY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause injury or fire. To reduce this risk:
• Use only AA alkaline dry cell batteries in this unit.
• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.
• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and –), marked on the battery and the equipment.
• Do not short battery terminals.
• Do not charge batteries.
• Do not mix old and new; or alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) and rechargeable (nickel cadmium or nickel metal

• Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local codes.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Remove batteries if the device will not be used for several months.
"Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with
conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation
Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes
(i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So
when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated
from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit."
