- Make sure the electrode does not come into contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Especially at contact with eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes and get prompt medical attention.
- In addition, be careful not to let the electrode contact with the coated parts.
- Be careful when handling the batteries because they produce explosive gases.
- Be sure to keep battery away from any fire.
- For safety, in case an explosion does occur, wear eye protection or shield your eyes when working near any battery. In addition, never lean over the battery.
- Ventilate sufficiently when using or charging battery in enclosed space.
