This kit should only be used by persons 12 years old and up, and only under the supervision of adults who
have familiarized themselves with the safety measures described in the kit. Keep small children and
animals away, as it contains small parts that could be swallowed. The fuel cell generates gases that are
very easily ignited. Read the instructions before use and have them ready for reference.

When inserting the batteries make sure that you are doing so with the correct polarity (the positive end of
the battery must match up with the “+” and the negative end of the battery must match up with the “-”
indicated on the battery pack), close the battery pack and secure its cover by tightening the screw with a
screw driver.
