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.
