SAFETY DATA SHEET
Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have
been read and understood.
When used correctly, these batteries provide a safe source of power.
When exposed to heat, when short circuited, or when exposed to incompatible
materials, the battery may rupture and release hazardous substances. These
substances can explode and burn. Do not short-circuit battery! Avoid reversing
battery polarity within the battery assembly; this may cause the cell to flame or leak.
Do not disassemble or damage the battery. Do not mix battery systems, such as
alkaline and zinc carbon, in the same equipment. Be sure to securely pack batteries by
providing partitions in packaging boxes. Use strong material for packaging boxes to
avoid damage by vibration, impact, dropping and stacking during transport. Keep away
from heat and flame. Do not allow contact with water. Keep away from incompatibles.
DO NOT place on metal or conductive surfaces. This will short out the battery pack
and destroy the batteries.
Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Wear suitable protective equipment
during handling. Wear protective gloves/clothing and eye/face protection. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not breathe dust, fume or vapor. Wash
thoroughly after handling. Exhausted batteries should be immediately removed from
equipment, and disposed of properly.

:Conditions for safe storage
Store in a dry place. Store in a closed container. Store in original containers. Store in a
cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Store locked up. Storage area should be clearly
identified, clear of obstruction and accessible only to trained and authorized personnel.
Inspect periodically for damage or leaks. Keep containers dry and tightly closed to
avoid moisture absorption and contamination.
