fluid as it can cause severe burns or
permanent eye injury.

dling or working near batteries.

and get immediate medical attention.

followed by milk of magnesia, beaten
egg, or vegetable oil. Get immediate
medical attention.
Batteries also generate explosive hydro-
gen gas; therefore, you should always
follow these preventive measures:
q Charge batteries in a well-ventilated
area.

or open flames (e.g., welding equip-
ment, lighted cigarettes, etc.).
q DO NOT SMOKE when charging or
handling batteries.

BATTERIES AND ELECTRO-
LYTIC FLUID OUT OF REACH OF CHIL-
DREN.
