Safety Rules for Arlo Pro Rechargeable Batteries
Arlo Pro Wire-Free HD Security Cameras use rechargeable batteries and can go
wherever you need them. But ALL batteries can EXPLODE, CATCH FIRE, and CAUSE
BURNS if disassembled, punctured, cut, crushed, short-circuited, incinerated, or
exposed to water, fire, or high temperatures, so you need to handle them with care.
To use Arlo Pro rechargeable batteries safely, follow these guidelines:
• ALWAYS store spare batteries in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
• ALWAYS make sure that the battery compartment is clean and free of any
debris before inserting new batteries.
• ALWAYS make sure the battery contacts are aligned.
• ALWAYS keep all batteries away from children.
• ALWAYS follow local waste and recycling laws when throwing used batteries
away.
• ALWAYS use an Arlo Pro power adapter or an Arlo Pro Charging Station (sold
separately) to charge Arlo Pro rechargeable batteries.
• NEVER place Arlo Pro rechargeable batteries in a pocket, purse, or other
receptacle, especially those containing metal objects.
• NEVER store Arlo Pro rechargeable batteries with hazardous or combustible
materials.
• NEVER let an Arlo Pro rechargeable battery or battery compartment get
wet—before, during, or after installation. (Remember that your camera itself is
weatherproof, but its interior battery compartment and batteries aren’t.)
• NEVER disassemble, cut, crush, puncture, short-circuit, dispose of an Arlo Pro
rechargeable battery in fire or water, or expose your battery to temperatures
above 60°C (140°F).
