Question What does this mean

I was just sitting here reading a battery (Yes I have no life) and it has a confuzing warning on it. It says, "Do not dispose of in fire, or recharge. Put in backwards. May leak or explode." Does this mean I AM sposta put it in backwards. And if it has a tendancy to leak or explode I dont think I want it in my new LED flashlight.

You have to wonder about manufacturer directions, I looked all through my owners manual, and it said nothing about applying rubber side down. I guess that means its okay to drive off them ramps.
