erations.
In case of contact with the skin, rinse
with plenty of water.
In case of contact with the eyes, rinse
with plenty of water for fifteen minutes,
then consult an oculist without delay.
If the electrolyte is accidentally swal-
lowed, drink a lot of water or milk, then
continue drinking milk of magnesia or
vegetable oil and consult a doctor with-
out delay.
The battery gives off explosive gases;
keep it away from flames, sparks, ciga-
rettes and any other source of heat.
During the recharging or the use, make
sure that the room is properly ventilated
and avoid inhaling the gases released
during the recharging.
