Notes on batteries
• Always replace batteries with an equivalent bat-
tery type.
• Swallowing batteries can be extremely danger-
ous. Keep the batteries and products out of
the reach of small children. If a battery is swal-
lowed, seek medical attention immediately.
• Batteries must not be recharged, reactivated by
other means, taken apart, thrown into an open
fire or short circuited.
• Never expose the batteries to excessive levels
of heat, such as sunlight, fire or similar! This in-
creases the risk of leakage. There is a risk of
damage to the batteries or even explosion if
these instructions for use are not observed.
• Remove depleted batteries from the receiver or
chest strap immediately, as otherwise they may
leak. If leakage does occur, avoid contact with
the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Rinse
surfaces contaminated with battery acid imme-
diately with plenty of clean water and consult
a doctor without delay. Clean the battery con-
tacts and device contacts if necessary.
• Used batteries should not be disposed of in
normal household waste. Dispose of them via
your electronics retailer or your local recycling
point. You are legally obligated to do so. Note:
the codes below are printed on batteries con-
taining harmful substances:
Pb = Battery contains lead
Cd = Battery contains cadmium
Hg = Battery contains mercury
