BATTERY DANGERS
Always read the following
instructions carefully when
handling a battery.
Keep lighted cigarettes and
all other flames or sparks
away from the battery.
Hydrogen, which is a
highly combustible gas, is
always present in battery
cells and may explode if
ignited.
Keep batteries out of the
reach of children because
batteries contain highly
corrosive SULFURIC ACID.
Do not allow battery acid to
contact your skin, eyes,
clothing or paint finish.

If any electrolyte gets into
your eyes, flush your eyes
with clean water for at least
15 minutes and get
immediate medical
attention. If possible,
continue to apply water
with a sponge or cloth until
medical attention is
received.
If electrolyte gets on your
skin, thoroughly wash the
contacted area. If you feel a
pain or a burning
sensation, get medical
attention immediately.
Wear eye protection when
charging or working near a
battery. Always provide
ventilation when working in
an enclosed space.

• When lifting a plastic-cased
battery, excessive pressure on
the case may cause battery acid
to leak, resulting in personal
injury. Lift with a battery carrier
or with your hands on opposite
corners.
• Never attempt to charge the
battery when the battery cables
are connected.
• The electrical ignition system
works with high voltage. Never
touch these components with
the engine running or the
ignition switched on.
