• Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is corrosive and can cause damage to
the eyes or skin. It can be toxic if swallowed.
• Av oid contact with metal objects when handling the battery. These objects could short out the
batteries or cause the conductor to overheat resulting in burns.
• Do not attempt to recharge the battery cell by heating it. Sudden release of battery electrolyte can
cause burns or irritation to the eyes or skin.
