result in personal injury and/or property damage.
To prevent injury or damage:
– If the battery leaks, avoid contact with the battery fluid.
– If battery fluid gets into your eyes, immediately rinse your eyes with
clean water and seek medical attention. Do not rub your eyes!
– If battery fluid gets onto your skin or clothing, immediately use clean
water to wash off the battery fluid.
Each receiver in your system is supplied with two internal Lithium-ion
battery packs. To charge both sets of batteries, connect both receivers
to power supplies as shown in Figure 3.2.

All battery types discharge over time when they are not being used.
Batteries also discharge faster in colder temperatures. If a Lithium-ion
battery is to be stored for long periods of time, make sure it is fully
charged before storing and re-charged at least every three months.
