Indication of immediate
medical attention and special
treatment needed
Exposure to contents of an open or damaged battery: If breathing is difficult, remove to fresh air
and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a physician or poison control center
immediately.
Exposure to contents of an open or damaged battery: Remove contaminated clothes and rinse
skin thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Call a physician or poison control center
immediately. Chemical burns must be treated by a physician.
Exposure to contents of an open or damaged battery: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water
for at least 15 minutes. Provide eyewash station. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to
do. Continue rinsing. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Exposure to contents of an open or damaged battery: Call a physician or poison control center
immediately. Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that
stomach content doesn't get into the lungs.
Exposure to contents of an open or damaged battery: Burning pain and severe corrosive skin
damage. Causes serious eye damage. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling,
and blurred vision. Permanent eye damage including blindness could result. May cause allergic

General information
IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. Ensure that medical personnel are aware
of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Show this safety data
sheet to the doctor in attendance. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

equipment/instructions
Specific methods
General fire hazards
Use fire-extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding materials.
Leak from a damaged or opened battery: Do not use water unless flooding amounts are available.
In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. The evolved combustion products may
contain carbon oxides, metal oxides, hydrogen fluoride, and should be considered hazardous.
Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained positive pressure or pressure
demand breathing apparatus, protective clothing and face mask.
Fight fire from protected location or safe distance. Keep upwind. Move containers from fire area if
you can do so without risk. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.
Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.
Under normal use, the battery does not exhibit flammable properties. In the event that the battery
is abused and disassembly of the battery occurs resulting in exposure of internal components, the
exposed solution, may be flammable and/or corrosive. Exposure to excessive heat may lead to
venting or rupture of the sealed battery, exposing the internal components which may be corrosive
and/or flammable. Vented gas would be flammable when in sufficient concentration.
6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Environmental precautions
None under normal use conditions. In the event of damage resulting in a leak or exposed
materials, avoid contact with contents of an open or damaged cell or battery. Wear protective
clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet.
Leak from a damaged or opened battery: Contain spillage with sand or earth. Collect with
absorbent, non-combustible material into suitable containers. For waste disposal, see Section 13
of the SDS.
Avoid allowing material from exposed battery to contaminate soil, sanitary sewers, or waterways.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
Do not open, disassemble, crush or burn battery. Protect against physical damage. Do not expose
battery to extreme heat or fire. Do not allow conductive material to touch the battery terminals. A
dangerous short-circuit may occur and cause battery failure and fire.
Keep out of reach of children. Prevent short circuits. Store in original packaging. Store in a cool,
dry, ventilated area away from sources of heat, moisture and incompatibilities. Store away from
incompatible materials (See Section 10).
