BATTERIES

• Use only the battery type listed in the

instruction manual. Do not use lithium

batteries or non-rechargeable batteries

that may damage the handset

and charger.

• Do not dispose of the battery in a fire, as

they can explode.

• Do not open or mutilate the battery.

Released electrolyte is corrosive and can

cause damage to the eyes or skin. It can

be toxic if swallowed.

• Avoid contact with metal objects when

handling the battery. These objects could

short out the batteries or cause the

conductor to overheat resulting in burns.

• Do not attempt to recharge the battery cell

by heating it. Sudden release of battery

electrolyte can cause burns or irritation to

the eyes or skin.

• Observe the proper polarity, or direction,

of any battery. Reverse insertion of the

battery cell can result in leakage or

explosion.

• Remove the battery cells if you do not plan

to use the product for several months at

a time.

• Discard any “dead” batteries because

they are likely to leak into the product.

• Do not store this product or the battery in

a high temperature area. Battery stored in

a freezer or refrigerator should be

protected from condensation during

storage and defrosting. Battery should be

stabilized at room temperature

before using.

• Your battery is rechargeable and can be

recycled once it outlives its usefulness.

Depending upon your local and state law,

it might be illegal to dispose of this battery

into a municipal waste system. Check with

your local solid waste company for more

information on your recycling options for

the battery cells.
