6. Information on batteries and rechargeable batteries

The drum kit can be operated with batteries or rechargeable batteries instead of the enclosed mains unit.
However, the lower voltage (rechargeable batteries = 1.2 V, batteries = 1.5 V) and the lower capacity of rechargeable
batteries will decrease the operating time. If you want to use rechargeable batteries anyway, use special NiMH batteries
with a low self-discharge.
We recommend that you use high-quality alkaline batteries to ensure long and safe operation.
• Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children.
• Ensure that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries/rechargeable batteries (observe plus/+ and minus/-).
• Do not leave any batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around openly. There is a risk of batteries being swallowed by children
or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause chemical burns to skin. Wear suitable protective gloves when
handling them.
• Make sure that batteries/rechargeable batteries are not short-circuited, disassembled or thrown into fire. There is a danger of
explosion!
• Never recharge normal (non-rechargeable) batteries. There is a danger of explosion! Only charge rechargeable batteries which
are intended for this purpose; use a suitable battery charger.
• If not used for a longer period (e.g. in case of storage), remove the inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries. There is a danger
of old batteries/rechargeable batteries leaking, which causes damage to the product, loss of warranty/guarantee!
• Always replace the entire set of batteries/rechargeable batteries, only use batteries/rechargeable batteries of the same type
and by the same manufacturer with the same charge status (do not mix charged with partially charged or empty batteries/re-
chargeable batteries).
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries. Use either batteries or rechargeable batteries.
• For proper disposal of batteries and rechargeable batteries, please read the chapter "Disposal".
