The 5071A should NOT be operated in a gas-tight enclosure, to
minimize the possibility of any hazardous accumulation of hydrogen
gas associated with battery overcharging or failure. The possibility of
such gaseous accumulation during normal operating circumstances is
very remote but requires care as a preventive measure.
Battery Disposal
The spent lead-acid battery pack(s) is considered hazardous waste in
some countries. Dispose only in accordance with local
environmental regulations. Contact the nearest regional
office of environmental health service for guidance.
The battery is recyclable as shown by the recyclable symbols that
appear on the battery case. Contact the nearest regional office-of-
environmental-health-service for guidance.
