Safety Precautions
�
The battery contains sulfuric acid. In normal operation, all
the sulfuric acid is attached to the separation board and
plate in the battery. However, when the battery case is
broken, the acid will leak from the battery. Therefore, be
sure to wear a pair of protective glasses, rubber gloves and
skirt when operating the battery. Otherwise, you may
become blind if acid enters your eyes and your skin may be
damaged by the acid.
�
At the end of battery life, the battery may have internal
short circuit, drain of electrolytic and erosion of
positive/negative plates. If this condition continues, the
battery may have temperature out of control, swell or leak.
Be sure to replace the battery before these phenomena
happen.
�
If a battery leaks electrolyte, or is otherwise physically
damaged, it must be replaced, stored in a container resistant
to sulfuric acid and disposed of in accordance with local
regulations.
�
If electrolyte comes into contact with the skin, the affected
area should be washed immediately with water.
