Battery Disposal When it becomes necessary to replace the battery that supports the real
time clock on the 1336 FORCE, precautions must be taken when
disposing of the old battery. The following procedure must be followed
when disposing of lithium batteries:
!
ATTENTION: Do not incinerate or dispose of lithium batteries in
general trash collection. Explosion or violent rupture is possible.
Batteries should be collected for disposal in a manner to prevent
against short circuiting, compacting, or destruction of case
integrity and hermetic seal.
For disposal, batteries must be packaged and shipped in accordance with
Federal, state, local or provincial laws to an appropriate Transfer, Storage
and Disposal facility.
The person disposing of the material is responsible for any hazards
created in doing so, as the material may be considered toxic, reactive, or
corrosive.
