- Do not discard a used battery in nature or garbage, that pollutes and prevents
the recovery of recyclable materials.
It is important to limit consumption of batteries and follow these guidelines:
•Focus on alkaline batteries (that last longer than the saline batteries) and
when possible, rechargeable batteries deposit batteries and accumulators in
specific containers arranged among traders.
•For example, metals will pollute the environment because they contain
heavy metals hazardous to health and the environment primarily (cadmium
and nickel)
- The piles must be installed by respecting the polarity indicated on the
apparatus and the pile.
An incorrect positioning can damage the apparatus, to cause escapes on the
level of the pile, is to the extreme to cause a fire or the explosion of the pile.
- To ensure proper operation, the batteries must be in good condition. In case of
abnormality in the functioning of the device, put fresh batteries in.
- Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. They could get ruin,
get hot, cause a fire or explosion.
- Replace all batteries at the same time. Never mix zinc batteries with alkaline
batteries or rechargeable batteries
- Also, remove the batteries from your device if you do not use it for a long time,
if the batteries may leak and cause damage.
- Never try to short-circuit the battery terminals.
- Never dispose of batteries in fire, they might explode.
- Charging of batteries is to be performed by an adult.
- Remove batteries from the device before reloading.
- We recommend an adult to supervise children when they change the
batteries so that these instructions are complied with or to make himself the
replacement of batteries.
- If a battery is swallowed, immediately consult a doctor or poison control center
nearest you. Do not forget to carry the product with you.
