4. First–aid measures
Inhalation: In case of excessive inhalation due to leaking batteries remove to fresh air. Obtain medical
advice.
Skin Contact: If exposed to a leaking battery, remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed areas w ith
plenty of water and soap. If irritation occurs, consult a physician.
Eye contact: If a battery is leaking and materials contact eyes, flush immediately with running water for at
least 15 minutes. Consult an ophthalmologist at once.
Ingestion: Not anticipated due to size of batteries. Choking may occur with the smaller size batteries. If
exposed to a leaking battery, rinse mouth and surrounding areas with running water for at lea st
15 minutes. Give plenty of water to drink. Do not induce vo miting. Obtain medical advice.
5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Carbon dioxide (CO
2
), foam, dry chemical powder.
Do not use direct water jet.
Exposure hazards from combustion products: In case of fire, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and other
toxic organic substances will be generated. Do not inhale fumes and smoke.
Personal protective equipments: Wear full protective clothing. Use self-contained breathing apparatus.
6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions: Notify safety personnel of large spills. Caustic potassium hydroxide may be released
from leaking or ruptured batteries. Avoid eye or skin contact and inhalation of
vapours. Increase the ventilation. Wear protective clothing. Keep unprotected
persons away.
Environmental precautions: Avoid discharge and penetration into sewerage systems, waterways, p its, and
cellars.
Methods for cleaning up: Collect spilled material with an inert standard ab sorbent like sand or silica. Keep
well-ventilated conditions. Recycle or dispose of the materials in an appropriate
way.
7. Handling and storage
General handling: Conform to the common kno wn rules and precautions for handling with chemicals. Avoid
mechanical and electrical abuse. Do not short battery or install incorrectly. Batteries
may explode, pyrolize or vent if disassembled, crushed, recharged or exposed to high
temperatures. Install ba tteries ac cording to equipment instructions. Do not mix battery
systems, such as alkaline and zinc- carbon. Replace all batteries in equipment at the
same time. Do not carry batteries loose in pocket or bag. Do not remove battery labels.
Storage: Store product in well-filled, appropriate coated and tightly c losed containers avoiding influence of
oxygen/air, light and humidity. Store a t room temperature.

Exposition/Technical measures: Atmospheric vapour concentrations must be minimized by adequate
ventilation.
Protection of hands, eyes and skin: None required under normal use conditions. When handling leaking
batteries, use neoprene, rubber or nitrile gloves and wear safety
