Handling Batteries - Medion MD 24285 Anleitung

If you are using an extension cable, make sure that it complies with VDE
requirements. If in doubt, contact your electrician.
For extra safety, we recommend using an over-voltage protection device to
prevent your devices sustaining damage as a result of power surges or
lightning strikes.
Lay the cable so that nobody is able to step on it or trip over it. Do not use
an extension cable.
Do not kink or crush the mains cable.

Handling batteries

Batteries may contain combustible materials. If not properly handled,
batteries may leak, heat up intensely, ignite or even explode, which could
result in damage to your camera and your health.
Please note the following safety advice:
Keep batteries away from children.
If batteries are swallowed, consult your doctor immediately.
Never charge batteries (unless it is expressly specified).
Never discharge the batteries by means of high power output.
Never short-circuit the batteries.
Never expose the batteries to excessive heat such as sunlight, fire or
similar.
Do not dismantle or deform the batteries.
Your hands or fingers could be injured or battery fluid could come into
contact with your eyes or skin. If this should happen, then rinse the
affected areas immediately with a large amount of clean water and
contact your doctor immediately.
Avoid heavy impacts and vibrations.
Always observe the correct polarity. Make sure that the plus (+) and minus
(-) poles are correctly inserted to avoid short circuits.
Clean the contacts in the battery compartment and on the new batteries
before insertion.
Do not mix up new and old batteries or different types of battery. This
could cause your device to malfunction. In addition, the weaker
batteries would discharge too much.
Remove used up batteries from the device immediately.
Remove the batteries from the device if you do not intend to use it for a
long period of time.
Replace all the old batteries in a device with new batteries of the same
type.
Cover the contacts of the batteries with sticky tape if you want to store or
dispose of them.
