WARNING
Environmental risk due to improper disposal of batteries
Ensure that defect or used batteries are disposed of safely (con-
tact a waste management company or Kärcher Service).
Procedures in the event of unintentional release of battery
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 sulphuric
acid which can cause serious chemical burns and corrosion.
1. If there is spillage or, if the battery is leaking, acid is escaping,
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 ac-
cording to local regulations.
3. Contact a waste management company to dispose of faulty
batteries.
4. Rinse out your eyes or rinse off your skin with copious
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.
