Find remotes, scales, decorative lights and toys that use button or coin cells.
Check that each battery door is secured with a screw or child-resistant lock; keep products with broken or loose doors away from children.
Store new cells in their original child-resistant packaging inside a locked cabinet, never loose on a table or floor.
Keep spent cells inaccessible; cover their terminals with nonconductive tape and take them to a designated local battery collection point.
Count cells before and after replacements, and pick up dropped batteries immediately.
If swallowing or insertion into the nose or ear is suspected, go to emergency care at once without waiting for symptoms. Do not induce vomiting; follow medical guidance.
