Handling Batteries

WHEN HANDLING BATTERIES ALWAYS READ AND FOLLOW THE BATTERY MANUFACTURER

WARNINGS, INSTRUCTIONS AND CAUTIONARY MARKINGS

DANGER OF EXPLODING BATTERIES

Batteries contain sulfuric acid and produce explosive mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen gas. Because

self-discharge action generates hydrogen gas even when the battery is not in operation, make sure

batteries are stored and are used in a well-ventilated area. ALWAYS wear ANSI Z87.1 (U.S. standard)

approved safety glasses and face shield or splash proof goggles when working on or near batteries:

Always wear proper eye, face and hand protection.

Never try to charge a visibly damaged battery.

Do not attempt to charge a frozen battery.

Have plenty of soap, water and baking soda nearby in case battery acid comes

in contact with skin, clothes or eyes.

Keep all sparks, flames and cigarettes away from the battery.

Keep removable vents tight and level except when servicing electrolyte.

Never try to open a battery with non-removable vents.

Make sure work area is very well ventilated.

Never lean over battery while boosting, testing or charging.

Exercise caution when working with metallic tools or conductors to prevent short

circuits and sparks.

Make sure that the charger leads to the battery are not broken, frayed or loose.

If the battery becomes hot, or if violent gassing or spewing of electrolyte occurs,

immediately turn off the charger and have your local dealer test your battery.

HANDLING BATTERY ACID

Battery acid, or electrolyte, is a solution of poisonous sulfuric acid and water that can destroy clothing

and burn the skin. Use extreme caution when handling electrolyte and keep an acid neutralizing solution-

such as baking soda or household ammonia mixed with water- readily available. When handling batteries:

Always wear proper eye, face and hand protection.

If the electrolyte is splashed into an eye, immediately force the eye open and flood it

with clean, cool water for at least 15 minutes. Get prompt medical attention.

If electrolyte is taken internally, drink large quantities of water or milk.

DO NOT induce vomiting. Get prompt medical attention.

Neutralize with baking soda any electrolyte that spills on a vehicle or in the work area.

After neutralizing, rinse contaminated area clean with water.
