m Remove the batteries when the device is stored for long periods of
time.
m Always follow the battery manufacturer’s directions fully. Do not
attempt to disassemble, short circuit, or subject the battery to high
temperature or fire.
m Replace all batteries of a set at the same time. New batteries should
not be mixed with used ones. Do not mix rechargeable and non-
rechargeable batteries. Do not mix alkaline or Ni-MH types of
batteries. Do not mix different grades or brands of batteries. Failure to
observe this precaution may result in some batteries in a set being
driven beyond their normal exhaust point and increase their
possibility of leakage.
m NOT ALL BATTERIES ARE CREATED EQUAL. Battery life depends
significantly on age, usage conditions, type, brand, and device. Not all
batteries perform well under these challenging conditions. In Kodak
lab tests, Ni-MH rechargeable batteries delivered outstanding results
in a variety of conditions. Ni-MH batteries are designed for high-
demand devices, such as digital devices, and do not exhibit the
“memory” effects seen with other rechargeable technologies.
m In the unlikely event that battery fluid leaks onto your skin,
immediately wash the contaminated skin with soap and plenty of
water. Customers inside the U.S. can contact Kodak Health, Safety, and
Environment Information at 1-716-722-5151. Customers outside the
U.S. should contact their local health care provider.
m In the unlikely event that battery fluid leaks inside the device, U.S.
customers can contact the Kodak Information Center at 1-800-242-
2424. Customers outside the U.S. can contact their local Kodak
Customer Service representative.
