Information on handling batteries
Make sure that batteries are kept away from small children. Children may put
batteries in their mouths and swallow them. This can cause serious harm to their
health. If this happens, consult a doctor immediately.
Do not charge normal batteries, heat them up or throw them into naked flames
(they may explode).
Change low batteries in good time.
Always change all the batteries at the same time and use batteries of the same type.

(they may explode).
