BATTERY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
CAUTION:  
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO YOUR  
SET, READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.  
1. Use only the type and size of batteries mentioned in the operating instructions  
booklet (batteries are not included with this set, please buy the proper batteries).  
2. Do not dispose the batteries into a fire. The cells may explode. Check with local  
codes for possible special disposal instructions.  
3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may  
cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.  
4. Be careful when handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting  
materials such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may over  
heat and cause burns.  
5. Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. The batteries may leak  
corrosive electrolyte or explode.  
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the batteries identified for use with this product by  
heating them. Sudden release of the battery electrolyte may cause burns or  
irritation to eyes or skin.  
7. All batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing fresh and discharged  
batteries could increase internal cell pressure and rupture the batteries.  
8. When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity (  
and  
) or  
direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of some or all of the batteries may  
result in battery electrolyte leakage or explosion.  
9. Remove the batteries from this product if the product will not be used for a long  
period of time (several months or more) since during the period the batteries could  
leak, damaging the product.  
10. Discard weak or dead batteries as soon as possible since they are more likely to  
leak in the product. Batteries should be replaced (depending on the product) when  
the display gets dim or if the Low Battery Indicator shows or if the sound gets  
distorted.  
11. Do not store this product in high temperature areas. Batteries that are stored in a  
freezer or refrigerator for the purpose of extending shelf life should be protected  
from condensation during storage and defrosting. Batteries should be stabilized at  
room temperature prior to use after cold storage.  
12. If this product does not operate normally, see TROUBLE SHOOTING in this  
instruction manual. If you can’t resolve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the  
LENOXX WARRANTY INFORMATION. Opening or removing covers may expose you to  
dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when  
the appliance is subsequently used.  
13. If liquid leaks from the batteries, carefully wipe this liquid. Do not allow it to touch your skin,  
and discard the leaking batteries.  
14. Do not mix batteries (OLD and NEW or CARBON and ALKALINE, etc.).  
15. The use of rechargeable batteries is not recommended for this set because their  
voltage and life is lower than standard batteries.  
16. Installation of batteries should be done by an adult only.
