BATTERY INFORMATION

• KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Swallowing may lead to serious injury

or death. Severe burns can occur within 2 hours of ingestion. Immediately see

a doctor and have the doctor phone (202) 625- 3333 collect. Keep in original

injury due to re, explosion or leakage. Do not disassemble, charge, crush or

expose to re or high temperatures.

• LITHIUM COIN CELL SAFETY NOTICE: Keep lithium coin batteries out of the

reach of small children; coin cell batteries can be accidentally ingested. If

ingested, these batteries may leak harmful contents causing chemical burns,

perforation of soft tissue, and in severe cases may cause death. Lithium coin

batteries must be removed immediately if swallowed. Seek medical attention

immediately. If you or your doctor suspects that a battery has been ingested

for assistance in the US call the NATIONAL BATTERY INGESTION HOTLINE any

• Remove the battery if the remote control is not used for a long period of time.

WARNING

It is normal for the power cord to feel warm to the touch; however, a loose

t between the outlet and the plug may cause overheating of the plug. If

this occurs, try inserting the plug into a different outlet. Contact a qualied
