Battery-Powered Devices
These precautions apply to all products that use rechargeable or disposable batteries.
Improper use of batteries may result in battery uid leakage, overheating, or explosion. Released battery
uid is corrosive and may be toxic. It can cause skin and eye burns, and is harmful if swallowed.
To reduce the risk of injury:
● Keep batteries out of reach of children.
● Do not heat, open, puncture, mutilate, or dispose of batteries in re.
● Do not mix new and old batteries or batteries of different types (for example, carbon-zinc and
alkaline batteries).
● Do not allow metal objects to touch the battery terminals on the device; they can become hot
and cause burns.
● Remove the batteries if they are worn out or before storing your device for an extended period of time.
● Always remove old, weak, or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or dispose of them in accordance
with Local and National Disposal Regulations.
● If a battery leaks, remove all batteries, taking care to keep the leaked uid from touching your skin
or clothes. If uid from the battery comes into contact with skin or clothes, ush skin with water
immediately. Before inserting new batteries, thoroughly clean the battery compartment with a damp
paper towel, or follow the battery manufacturer’s recommendations for cleanup.
Disposable (non-rechargeable) batteries only:
● Caution Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Use and replace only with the
correct size and type (alkaline, zinc-carbon, or zinc-chloride) of batteries.
Rechargeable batteries only:
● Caution Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Use and replace only with the same
type and rating as the batteries provided.
● Charge only with the recharger provided with the product.
Headset Devices
Extended exposure to high volumes when using a headset may result in temporary or permanent
hearing loss.
Wireless Devices
Before boarding any aircraft or packing a wireless device in luggage that will be checked, remove the
batteries from the wireless device or turn the wireless device off (if it has an on/off switch). Wireless devices
can transmit radio frequency (RF) energy, much like a cellular telephone, whenever batteries are installed
and the wireless device is turned on (if it has an on/off switch).
