1.3 Emergency situation
Despite of its careful and professional protection design against any
hazards, damage of the battery may still possible. If a small amount of
battery electrolyte is released due to a serious damage of the outer casing;
or if the battery explodes due to not being treated timely after a fire breaks
out nearby, and leaks out poisonous gases such as carbon monoxide,
carbon dioxide and etc., the following actions are recommended:
1）Eye contact: Rinse eyes with a large amount of running water and
seek medical advice
2）Contact with skin: Wash the contacted area with soap thoroughly
and seek medical advice
3）Inhalation: If you feel discomfort, dizziness or vomiting, seek medical
advice immediately.
4） Use a FM-200 or Carbon Dioxide (CO2) fire extinguishers to
extinguish the fire if there is a fire in the area where the battery pack is
installed. Wear a gas mask and avoid inhaling toxic gases and harmful
substances produced by the fire.
5）Use an ABC fire extinguisher, if the fire is not caused by battery and
not spread to it yet.
·If a fire has just occurred, try to disconnect the battery circuit breaker and cut off
the power supply first, but only if you can do so without endangering yourself.
·If the battery is on fire, do not attempt to extinguish the fire but evacuate the crowd
immediately.
