Measures in case of battery fire
• In case of battery fire, remove all flammable objects around the burning battery
and call the fire brigade, if required.
• Ensure sufficient ventilation to ensure that hazardous and explosive vapours
can escape.
• In case of significant smoke development, please leave the room immediately.
• In case of respiratory tract irritation, consult a physician.
• Fight battery fires with water only. Powder extinguishers and fire blankets only
serve to extinguish surrounding fires but are not an effective method to fight
the battery fire.
• Do not touch the burning battery, not even with protective gloves. A burning
battery is extremely hot due to plasma formation!
