For your own personalsafety,pleasefollowthe followingprecautions:

• Wear complete eye and clothing

protection when working with lead-

acid batteries.

• Be sure that someone is within range

of your voice to come to your aid if

needed while you work with or are

near a lead-acid battery.

• Have plenty of fresh water and

soap nearby for use in case battery

acid contacts your eyes, skin, or

clothing. If this happens, wash

immediately with soap and water.

Then get medical attention.

• Avoid touching your eyes while

working with a battery. Acid particles

(corrosion) may get into your eyes. If

this occurs, flush eyes immediately

with running cold water for at least 10

minutes. Then immediately get

medical attention.

Remove all personal metal items

from your body such as rings,

bracelets, necklaces and watches,

while working with a lead-acid battery.

A battery can produce a short circuit

current high enough to weld a ring (or

the like) to metal, causing a severe

burn.

• Take care not to drop any metal tool

or metal object onto the battery. This

may spark or short circuit the battery

or another electrical device that may

cause an explosion.

• Always operate your battery charger

in an open, well-ventilated area.

• Never smoke or allow a spark or

flame in the vicinity of the battery or

engine. Batteries generate explosive

gases.

• Neutralize any acid spills thoroughly

with baking soda before attempting to

clean up.
