REMOTE CONTROL BATTERIES
Warning
Never throw batteries into a fire.Using the batteries improperly may cause them to explode or leak and may result in serious injury.  If battery-leaking fluid contacts skin, wash the fluid off immediately with clean water and consult a doctor. If the fluid spills on an instrument, avoid contact and wipe it off using tissue paper. Then dispose of the used tissue paper as flammable garbage after moistening the tissue with water.
Notes
Be sure to use AAA (LR03) size batteries.Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.Do not mix different battery types or combine used batteries with new ones.If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes reduced, replace both batteries with new ones.If the batteries are dead or if you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.Following information is only for EU-member states:
[Disposal of batteries and/or accumulators]
The crossed out wheeled dust bin symbol indicates that batteries and/or accumulators must be collected and disposed of separately from household waste.
If the battery or accumulator contains more than the specified values of lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and/or cadmium (Cd) defined in the Battery Directive 
(006/66/EC), then the chemical symbols for lead (Pb), mercury (Hg) and/or 
cadmium (Cd) will appear below the crossed out wheeled dust bin symbol. 
By participating in separate collection of batteries, you will help to assure the proper disposal of products and batteries and thus help to prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health. 
For more detailed information about the collection and recycling programmes available in your country, please contact your local city office or the shop where you purchased the product.
