WARNING - KEEP BUTTON
BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN
• Swallowing may lead to
serious injury in as little as
2 hours or death, due to
chemical burns and potential
perforation of the oesophagus.
• Never allow children to
replace button batteries of
any device.
• If you suspect your child
has swallowed or inserted a
button battery immediately
call the 24-hour Poisons
Information Centre on 13 11 26
(Australia) for fast, expert
advice.
• Regularly examine devices
and make sure the battery
compartment is correctly
secured, e.g. that the screw
or other mechanical fastener
is tightened. Do not use if
compartment is not secure.
• Dispose of used button
batteries immediately and
safely. Flat batteries can
still be dangerous.
• Tell others about the risk
associated with button
batteries and how to keep
their children safe.
