(Sample Illustration) Removing the battery
If the battery is leaking or its case is cracked, put on protective 
gloves to handle it, and discard it immediately. Always dispose of 
used battery packs in compliance with all applicable laws and 
regulations. Put insulating tape, such as cellophane tape, on the 
electrode during transportation to avoid a possible short circuit, fire 
or electric shock. Failure to do so could possibly result in serious 
injury.
Inserting a charged battery
To insert a battery:
1
Wipe the terminals of the charged battery with a clean cloth to 
ensure a good connection.
2
Insert the charged battery into the slot until the latch clicks.
The battery pack has been designed so that you cannot install it 
with reverse polarity.
