Warning: Battery posts, terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
Warning: Do not allow flames, sparks or lighted substances to
come near the battery. Batteries normally produce explosive
gases which can cause personal injury. When working near the
battery, always shield your face and protect your eyes. Always
have sufficient ventilation.
Warning: When lifting a plastic cased battery, excessive
pressure on the end walls could cause acid to flow through the
vent caps, resulting in personal injury, damage to the vehicle or
battery. Lift the battery with a battery carrier or with your hands
on opposite corners.
Warning: Keep batteries out of reach of children.
Warning: Batteries contain sulphuric acid. Avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. Shield your eyes when working near the
battery to protect against possible splashing of acid solution. In
case of acid contact with skin or eyes, flush immediately with
water for a minimum of 15 minutes and get prompt medical
attention. If acid is swallowed, get medical help immediately.
The engine must never be run with the vehicle battery
disconnected.

the vehicle battery is incapable of starting the engine. In this case
the vehicle battery must be replaced. Contact your Aston Martin
Dealer.
