LITHIUM-ION batteries
• If a battery leak occurs, avoid any contact with the leaking fluids and contact a professional to replace the battery.
• If leaking fluids come in contact with skin and clothing, wash immediately with plenty of soap and water.
• If leaking fluids come in contact with eyes, do not rub eyes. Immediately flush eyes with cool running water for at least 15
minutes and do not rub them.
Seek medical attention as soon as possible.
• Do not enter pool while the Polaris pool cleaner is in water.
• Do not use a battery pack or battery operated appliance that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not use an extension cord to connect the cleaner to electric supply; provide a properly located GFCI receptacle.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek medical attention.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature below 32°F (0°C)
and above 113°F (45°C) may result in an explosion.
Battery Life & Disposal of Li-Ion Batteries

• Regulations and laws pertaining to the recycling and disposal of Li-Ion batteries vary from country to country as well as by
state and local governments. You should check the laws and regulations where you live.
• There are a number of facilities that recycle Li-Ion batteries. The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation's web site,
www.rbrc.org is an excellent source for finding a facility to handle these types of batteries. If you are not sure if your waste
