Keep batteries away from small children; if swallowed, seek medical attention promptly. For California residents, special handling may apply for Manganese Dioxide Lithium cells due to perchlorate material.
  • Troubleshooting Interference: If the device causes harmful interference to radio or television reception, users are encouraged to try measures such as reorienting or relocating the receiving antenna, increasing separation between equipment and receiver, connecting the equipment to a different circuit, or consulting a dealer or experienced technician.
