Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting
can occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen
causes direct connection of the positive (+) and negative
(-) terminals of the battery. (These look like metal strips on
the battery.) This might happen, for example, when you carry
a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the
terminals may damage the battery or the connecting object.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode.
Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries
according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible.
Do not dispose as household waste.
Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture
or shred cells or batteries. In the event of a battery leak, do
not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes.
In the event of such a leak, flush your skin or eyes immediately
with water, and seek medical help.
Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign
objects into the battery, or immerse or expose it to water
or other liquids.
