WARNING - KEEP BUTTON BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

Swallowing may lead to serious or fatal injury in as little as 2 hours 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) or 0800 764 766 (New Zealand) 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 the compartment is not secure.

Dispose of used button batteries immediately and safely out of reach of children. A battery can still be dangerous even when it can no longer operate the device.

Tell others about the risk associated with button batteries and how to keep their children safe.
