Notes on batteries
• Do not mix old battery with new one
or mix different types of batteries
together.
• If the electrolyte inside the battery
leaks, wipe the contaminated area of
the battery compartment with a cloth
and replace the old batteries with
new ones. To prevent electrolyte from
leaking, remove the batteries when
you plan not to use the Commander
