Battery Safety Information
Follow these guidelines when handling batteries.
– Always handle batteries carefully.
– Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate, or incinerate batteries.
– Touching both terminals of a battery with a metal object will short
circuit the battery, which could cause an explosion or a fire. Do not
carry batteries loosely if the contacts may touch coins, keys, and other
metal objects (such as in pockets or bags).
– Do not heat the batteries to try to rejuvenate their charge.
