Maintenance
To maximize the lifespan and performance of your Duracell DL1/3N Lithium Batteries:
- Storage: Store unused batteries in their original packaging in a cool, dry place at room temperature. Avoid extreme temperatures.
- Prevent Accidental Discharge: If your device uses multiple batteries and will be stored for an extended period, consider removing one battery and reinserting it with reversed polarity. This breaks the circuit and prevents accidental power drain or activation of the device, preserving battery life.
- Clean Contacts: Periodically inspect battery contacts in your device and on the batteries. Clean any dirt or corrosion with a clean, dry cloth to ensure optimal electrical connection.
- Disposal: Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations. Do not incinerate or mutilate batteries.
Troubleshooting
If your device is not powering on or functioning correctly after battery installation, consider the following:
- Check Polarity: Double-check that the batteries are inserted with the correct positive (+) and negative (-) polarity as indicated in the device's battery compartment.
- Secure Connection: Ensure the battery compartment cover is fully closed and secured, making proper contact with the batteries.
- Battery Condition: Verify that the batteries are new and not depleted. Although Duracell DL1/3N batteries have a long shelf life, check the expiration date if available.
- Device Compatibility: Confirm that your device is designed to use DL1/3N (CR1/3N) type batteries. Using incorrect battery types can lead to malfunction.
- Device Malfunction: If batteries are correctly installed and new, the issue might be with the device itself. Consult your device's troubleshooting guide or manufacturer.
Safety Information
Please observe the following safety precautions when handling and using Duracell DL1/3N Lithium Batteries:
- Keep Out of Reach of Children: Batteries can be a choking hazard and may cause serious injury if swallowed. Seek immediate medical attention if ingested.
- Do Not Recharge: These are primary (non-rechargeable) batteries. Attempting to recharge them can lead to leakage, fire, or explosion.
- Do Not Disassemble or Mutilate: Disassembling, crushing, or puncturing batteries can release hazardous materials and cause injury.
- Avoid Short Circuits: Do not allow battery terminals to short circuit. This can cause excessive heat, fire, or explosion.
- Do Not Expose to Heat or Fire: High temperatures can cause batteries to leak, rupture, or explode.
- Proper Disposal: Dispose of used batteries responsibly according to local regulations. Do not mix with household waste.
- Use Correct Size and Type: Always use the battery size and type specified by the device manufacturer.
