WARNING

Handling the battery cartridge

•Never disassemble or heat the battery

cartridge, nor put it into fire or water;

doing so could cause battery-rupture or

leakage of battery fluid, resulting in a

fire or bodily injury.

•Do not carry or store the battery car-

tridge together with metallic ball-point

pens, necklaces, coins, hairpins, etc.

Doing so could short-circuit the termi-

nal pins, causing the batteries to rup-

ture or the battery fluid to leak, result-

ing in a fire or bodily injury.

•Avoid dropping the battery cartridge or letting it undergo any shock

or impact.

Doing so could cause the batteries to break, generate heat, rupture or

burn.

•Only use the dedicated charger (CU-6001

or C-600) for charging the Ni-MH bat-

tery cartridge.

Using a different type of charger could

cause battery-rupture or leakage of bat-

tery fluid and result in a fire, bodily in-

jury, or serious damage to property.

Charge only

with the

dedicated

device.

•Never charge the Ni-MH battery cartridge where any inflammable

gases may be emitted; doing so could cause fire.

Never

Do not

short-

circuit

me!

WARNING

Handling the CU

•If smoke, abnormal odors or noises come from the CU, immediately

turn off the power, unplug the AC adapter from the wall socket, and

contact your nearest dealer.

Failure to do so could cause fire or electrical shock.

•If foreign material or water gets into the CU, immediately turn off the

power, unplug the AC adapter from the wall socket, and contact your

nearest dealer.

Failure to do so could cause fire or electrical shock.

•If you drop the CU so as to damage its housing, immediately turn off

the power, unplug the AC adapter from the wall socket, and contact

your nearest dealer.

Failure to do so could cause fire or electrical shock.

•Never use the CU for charging anything other than the specified

battery cartridges.

Doing so could cause heat, battery-rupture, or fire.

•Never bring any metals into contact with the output terminals.

Doing so could produce a large current through the CU, resulting in

heat or fire, as well as damage to the CU.

•Use the furnished AC adapter only. Failure to do so could result in

fire.

•Never use the CU on the line voltage other than the specified level.

Doing so could cause the CU to break or burn.

•If the power cord of the AC adapter is damaged (e.g., exposed or

broken lead wires), stop using it and contact your nearest dealer.

Failure to do so could result in a fire or electrical shock.

CAUTION

Basic handling tips

•Never put the BHT in places where there

are excessively high temperatures, such

as inside closed-up automobiles, or in

places exposed to direct sunlight.

Doing so could affect the housing or

parts, resulting in a fire.

•Avoid using the BHT in extremely hu-

mid or dusty areas, or where there are

drastic temperature changes.

Moisture or dust will get into the BHT,

resulting in malfunction, fire or electri-

cal shock.

•Never disassemble or modify the BHT; doing so could result in an

accident such as break or fire.

Handling the Ni-MH battery cartridge

•Never charge a wet or damp Ni-MH battery cartridge.

Doing so could cause the batteries to break, generate heat, rupture,

or burn.

Handling the BHT

•If smoke, abnormal odors or noises come from the BHT, immediately

turn off the power, pull out the dry batteries or the battery cartridge,

and contact your nearest dealer.

Failure to do so could cause smoke or fire.

•If foreign material or water gets into the

BHT, immediately turn off the power,

pull out the dry batteries or the battery

cartridge, and contact your nearest

dealer.

Failure to do so could cause smoke or

fire.

CAUTION

•If you drop the BHT so as to damage its hous-

ing, immediately turn off the power, pull out

the dry batteries or the battery cartridge, and

contact your nearest dealer.

Failure to do so could cause smoke or fire.

•For those machines using dry batteries, do not mistake the plus and

minus marks when loading dry batteries into the BHT.

Failure to do so could cause battery-rupture or leakage of battery

fluid, resulting in bodily injury, fire, or property damage.

•For those machines using dry batteries, do not use anything other

than the specified type of batteries, nor use new and old batteries

together.

Doing so could cause battery-rupture or leakage of battery fluid,

resulting in bodily injury, fire, or property damage.

•Do not use batteries or power sources other than the specified ones;

doing so could generate heat or cause malfunction.

Handling the CU

•If you will not be using the CU for a long time, be sure to unplug the

AC adapter from the wall socket for safety.

Failure to do so could result in a fire.

•When caring for the CU, unplug the AC adapter from the wall socket

for safety.

Failure to do so could result in an electrical shock.

•Never cover or wrap up the CU or AC adapter in a cloth or blanket.

Doing so could cause the unit to heat up inside, deforming its hous-

ing, resulting in a fire.

Always use the CU and AC adapter in a well-ventilated area.

•Do not place the CU anyplace where it may be subjected to oily

smoke or steam, e.g., near a cooking range or humidifier.

Doing so could result in a fire or electrical shock.

Do not
