rechargeable and standard) or new and
used baeries are not to be mixed.
››› Do not mix old and new baeries.
››› Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-
zinc), or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium)
baeries.
››› Baeries are to be inserted with the correct
polarity. Press them gently into the baery
compartment. See page 2.
››› Always close the baery compartment
with the lid.
››› Non-rechargeable baeries are not to be
recharged. They could explode!
››› Rechargeable baeries are only to be
charged under adult supervision.
››› Rechargeable baeries are to be removed
from the toy before being charged.
››› Exhausted baeries are to be removed
from the toy.
››› Dispose of used baeries in accordance
with environmental provisions, not in the
household trash.
››› Be sure not to bring baeries into contact
with coins, keys, or other metal objects.
››› Avoid deforming the batteries.
››› Please remove the batteries if the toy is
likely to be unused for a long time.
