SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Only authorized and trained personnel familiar with battery installation, preparation, charging, and
maintenance should be permitted access to the battery.
SHOCK HAZARD – Do not touch un-insulated battery, connectors or terminals. Be sure
to discharge static electricity from tools and technician by touching a grounded surface
near the batteries, but away from the cells and flame arresters.
All tools should be adequately insulated to avoid the possibility of shorting connections.
Do not lay tools on the top of the battery.
Although VRLA batteries are sealed and emit no gas during normal operation, they
contain potentially explosive gases, which may be released under abnormal operating
conditions, such as a charger malfunction. It is the responsibility of the customer to
provide adequate ventilation so hydrogen gas accumulation in the battery area does
not exceed two percent by volume. However, normal air circulation in a ventilated
facility will preclude any hydrogen build-up even during equalize charging. Never
install batteries in a sealed cabinet or enclosure. If you have any questions, contact your
local C&D representative.
This battery contains sulfuric acid, which can cause severe burns. In case of skin contact
with electrolyte, remove contaminated clothing and flush affected areas thoroughly with
water. If eye contact has occurred, flush for a minimum of 15 minutes with large amounts
of running water and seek immediate medical attention.
Risk of fire, explosion or burns. Do not disassemble, heat above 80ºC (175ºF) or incinerate
