Always refit the terminal caps on the batteries.
Batteries contain substances dangerous to health and the environment. Discarded batteries must therefore be
disposed of according to local and/or national regulations.

Charging batteries

Explosion hazard
When a battery is being charged, an explosive mixture of oxygen and hydrogen is formed. A short circuit, open flame or
spark near the battery can cause a powerful explosion. Always turn off the charging current before disconnecting the
charging clamps. Ventilate well, especially if the battery is charged in a confined space.

Corrosive sulphuric acid
The battery electrolyte contains corrosive sulphuric acid. Electrolyte spilled on bare skin must be removed immediately.
Wash with soap and plenty of water. If electrolyte gets into your eyes or any other sensitive body part, rinse immediately
with plenty of water and seek immediate medical attention.
