spark.
Keep batteries out of the reach
of children because batteries
contain highly corrosive SUL-
FURIC ACID and electrolytes.
Do not allow battery acid to contact your
skin, eyes, clothing or paint finish.
Wear eye protection when
charging or working near a
battery. Always provide venti-
lation when working in an
enclosed space.
Always read the following
instructions carefully when
handling a battery.
If any electrolyte gets into
your eyes, flush your eyes with
clean water for at least 15 min-
utes and get immediate medi-
cal attention. If electrolyte gets on your
skin, thoroughly wash the contacted
area. If you feel pain or burning sensa-
tion, get medical attention immediately.
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to the
environment and human
health. Dispose the battery
according to your local law(s) or regula-
tion.
