8 Electrolyte is poisonous and
dangerous since it contains
sulfuric acid, which causes
severe burns. Avoid any con-
tact with skin, eyes or clothing
and always shield your eyes
when working near batteries.
In case of contact, administer
the following FIRST AID.
8 EXTERNAL: Flush with
plenty of water.
8 INTERNAL: Drink large
quantities of water or milk
and immediately call a
physician.
8 EYES: Flush with water for
15 minutes and seek prompt
medical attention.
8 Batteries produce explosive
hydrogen gas. Therefore, keep
sparks, flames, cigarettes,
etc., away from the battery and
provide sufficient ventilation
when charging it in an
enclosed space.
8 KEEP THIS AND ALL BATTER-
IES OUT OF THE REACH OF
CHILDREN.
