Be sure to comply with your federal, state and local regulation regarding disposal of used batteries.
Please follow the instructions of proper regulation.

lead to distortion, leakage, overheating, or rupture, so make sure to cover the (+) or (-) terminals with
electrical or adhesive tape or some other insulator before disposal.
Section 14 – Transportation Information
LR44 ALKALINE BUTTON Batteries are considered to be “dry cell” batteries and are not listed as
dangerous goods under below regulations:
1. Batteries, dry fulfils the requirement of U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), Special
Provision 130, i.e. they are offered for transportation in a manner that prevents the dangerous
volution of heat (for example, by the effective insulation of exposed terminals or batteries to be
packed in such a way to prevent short circuits or generation of a dangerous quantity of heat.)”.
2. International Civil Aviation Administration (ICAO) and International Air Transport Association
(IATA), Special Provision A123, i.e. “An electrical battery or battery powered device having the
potential of dangerous evolutions of heat that is not prepared so as to prevent a short-circuit (e.g. in
the case of batteries, by the effective insulation of exposed terminals; or in the case of equipment, by
disconnection of the battery and protection of exposed terminals or batteries to be packed in such a
way to prevent short circuits or generation of a dangerous quantity of heat.) is forbidden from
transportation.”
