Environment and safety
Batteries
WARNING!
The batteries contain and form oxyhydrogen gas,
particularly during charging. Oxyhydrogen gas
is flammable and highly explosive.
There must be no smoking, naked flames or
sparks near the batteries or the battery compart-
ment. Incorrect connection of a battery cable or
jump lead can cause a spark, which can cause the
battery to explode.
Chemicals
WARNING!
Most chemicals such as glycol, anti-corrosive
agents, preservative oils and degreasing agents,
are hazardous to health.
Some chemicals, such as preservative oil, are
also flammable.
Always follow the safety precautions on the rel-
evant packaging.
Store chemicals and other materials which are
hazardous to health in approved containers,
marking them clearly and storing them where
they are inaccessible to unauthorised persons.
Environment
Always hand in leftover and used chemicals to
an authorised waste disposal contractor.
