Safety Information
To ensure safe operation and prevent damage, please observe the following precautions:
- Keep out of reach of children: Batteries can be a choking hazard. If swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
- Insert correctly: Always align the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals according to the device's markings. Incorrect insertion can cause damage or leakage.
- Do not recharge: These are non-rechargeable alkaline batteries. Attempting to recharge them can lead to leakage, fire, or explosion.
- Do not disassemble or modify: Tampering with batteries can cause internal short circuits, leading to overheating, leakage, or explosion.
- Avoid short circuits: Do not allow metal objects to contact both terminals simultaneously.
- Do not expose to heat or fire: High temperatures can cause batteries to leak or explode.
- Do not mix battery types: Avoid mixing old and new batteries, or different types of batteries (e.g., alkaline with carbon-zinc or rechargeable). This can cause leakage or reduced performance.
- Remove exhausted batteries: Promptly remove depleted batteries from devices to prevent leakage and potential damage.
- Store properly: Store batteries in a cool, dry place at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and metal objects.
