Operating

Amazon Basics High-Performance Alkaline Batteries are designed for reliable operation in a variety of devices. They deliver adaptive power, meaning they provide the optimal amount of energy required by your specific device, ensuring efficient and consistent performance.

These batteries are ready to use right out of the box. For best results, always replace all batteries in a device at the same time with new batteries of the same type and brand.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance and storage can extend the shelf life of your batteries and ensure safe operation:

• Storage: Store unused batteries in their original packaging in a cool, dry place at room temperature. Avoid extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
• Handling: Do not store batteries loosely in a pocket or purse with metal objects like coins, paper clips, or keys, as this can cause a short circuit.
• Disposal: These are single-use alkaline batteries and are NOT rechargeable. Do not attempt to recharge them. Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations. Many communities offer recycling programs for batteries.

Troubleshooting

If your device is not functioning correctly with new batteries, consider the following:

• Device Not Powering On:
  • Ensure batteries are inserted with correct polarity (+ and -).
  • Check if the battery contacts in the device are clean and free of corrosion. Gently clean with a cotton swab if necessary.
  • Verify that the battery compartment is closed securely.
• Short Battery Life:
  • High-drain devices (e.g., digital cameras, gaming controllers) consume power more quickly. This is normal.
  • Ensure all batteries in the device are new and from the same pack. Mixing old and new batteries, or different types, can reduce overall performance.
  • Check the device for any internal issues that might be causing excessive power consumption.
• Leaking Batteries:
  • While rare, battery leakage can occur. If a battery leaks, avoid contact with skin and eyes. Clean the device's battery compartment immediately.
  • Ensure batteries are not exposed to extreme heat or left in a depleted state in a device for extended periods.
