Section 13-Disposal condition

The battery may be regulated by national or local regulation. Please follow the

instructions of proper regulation. As electric capacity is left in a discarded battery and it

comes into contact with other metals, it could lead to distortion, leakage, overheating, or

explosion, so make sure to cover the (+)and (-) terminals with friction tape or some other

insulator before disposal.

Section 14-Transportation Information

In general, all batteries in all forms of transportation (ground, air, or ocean) must be

packaged in a safe and responsible manner. Regulatory concerns from all agencies for

safe packaging require that batteries be packaged in a manner that prevents short

circuits and be contained in “strong outer packaging” that prevents spillage of contents.

All original packaging for Pairdeer Carbon Zinc batteries has been designed to be

compliant with these regulatory concerns.

Carbon Zinc batteries (sometimes referred to as “Dry cell” batteries) are not listed as

dangerous goods under the ADR European Agreement Concerning the International

Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road, the IMDG International Maritime Dangerous

Goods Code, UN Dangerous Good Regulations, IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations,

ICAO Technical Instructions and the U.S. hazardous materials regulations (49 CFR).

These batteries are not subject to the dangerous goods regulations provided they meet

the requirements contained in the following special provisions.
