The site must be equipped with qualified fire extinguishing facilities, such as firefighting
sands and powder fire extinguishers.
Install batteries in a well-ventilated, dry, and cool environment that is far away from heat
sources, flammable materials, moistures, extensive infrared radiation, organic solvents,
and corrosive gases. Take fire prevention measures.
Place and secure batteries horizontally.
