leakage, which could cause personal injury or damage to property.
• Install the batteries correctly by following the polarity (+ and –)
indications in the battery compartment.
• Use only the types of the batteries which are indicated in this
manual.
• Do not install new batteries with used ones and do not mix diff erent
types of batteries.
• Do not dispose of the used batteries as domestic waste. Dispose
them in accordance with local regulations.
• If you are not going to use the unit for a long time, remove the
batteries to avoid damage from battery leakage and corrosion.
• Due to the short battery life span of some alkaline batteries, it is
recommended to use rechargeable batteries. This saves cost and is
more environmental friendly.
