5.3 Procedures in the event of unintentional
release of battery acid
When used normally, and when observing the instructions,
lead-acid batteries do not pose any risk.
However, keep in mind that lead-acid batteries contain sul-
phuric acid which can cause serious chemical burns and
corrosion.
1. If there is spillage or, if the battery is leaking, acid is es-
caping, lay down a binding agent such as sand. Do not
let it reach the sewer system, soil or a body of water.
2. Neutralise the acid with lime/baking soda and dispose of
it according to local regulations.

3. Contact a waste management company to dispose of
faulty batteries.

amounts of fresh water if acid splashes into your eyes or
onto your skin.
5. Then consult a doctor immediately.
6. Wash any contaminated clothing with water.
7. Change clothes.
