BATTERY PRECAUTIONS – LEAD ACID
WARNING! Wash skin or clothing that comes in contact with battery acid
immediately with soap and water for at least 10 minutes. Seek medical
attention immediately.
WARNING! Do not charge or jump-start a damaged or frozen battery. Contact
your local municipality for proper disposal procedures.
1.
Lead acid batteries generate oxygen and hydrogen. These gases can be
explosive. Keep batteries well ventilated. Remove any source of ignition
such as an open flame or a device like a heater from the area. Sparks may
also ignite the gas.
2.
Lead batteries contain sulfuric acid, also referred to as electrolyte or battery
acid. The acid is corrosive and can cause a skin burn if leaking or splashed.
The acid may also pose a threat if inhaled or ingested accidentally. The acid
can destroy normal clothing and injure the flesh underneath. Wear splash-
proof goggles and protective clothing when handling a battery.
