Please also read carefully: ♦ Alkaline batteries AA (LR6) are recommended. ♦ Rechargeable batteries are not recommended. ♦ If you do use rechargeable batteries, remove them from the motor before charging; they must be charged only under adult supervision. ♦ Non-rechargeable batteries must not be recharged. ♦ Keep motors and batteries free of dust ♦ Do not immerse or use motors or batteries in water. ♦ Do not dispose of batteries in a fire; they could leak or explode and cause injury. ♦ Remove all batteries if the motor will not be used for a long period of time. ♦ Do not put rods shorter than 50mm (2 inches) in any openings of the motor; they will damage the motor, and cannot be removed. ♦ Help the environment by disposing of your batteries responsibly.
