dangerous since it contains sulfuric
acid, which causes severe burns.
Avoid any contact with skin, eyes or
clothing and always shield your
eyes when working near batteries.
In case of contact, administer the

Batteries produce explosive
hydrogen gas. Therefore, keep
sparks, flames, cigarettes, etc.,
away from the battery and
provide sufficient ventilation
when charging it in an enclosed
space.
Be careful not to spill electrolyte

weaken the drive chain and
shorten the life of the drive chain,
and may lead to accidents.
Keep this and all batteries out of
the reach of children.
