6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Review Section 5 and Section 7
sections before proceeding with clean-up. Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
Appropriate ventilation.
Evacuate and ventilate spill area. Remove all sources of ignition or heat. Stop leak if safe to do so. Move
containers from spill area. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Review Section 5 and
Section 7 sections before proceeding with clean-up.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, water ways, drains and sewers.
Remove all sources of ignition or heat. Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from spill area. Carefully collect
undamaged batteries in a clean, dry and appropriate container for reuse or disposal. If electrolyte leaks or spills,
collect all released material in an appropriate container before proper disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
General Information
This product should be stored, handled and used in accordance with good industrial hygiene practices and in
conformity with any legal regulation. Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this
material is handled, stored and processed. Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical
products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Precautions for safe handling
Do not dispose in fire, mix with other battery types, connect improperly, or short circuit, which may result in
overheating, explosion or leakage of cell contents. Accidental short circuit will bring high temperature elevation to
the battery as well as shorten the battery life. Be sure to avoid prolonged short circuit since the heat can burn
attendant skin and even rupture of the battery cell case. Battery bulk container, coins, metal jewelry, metal
worktable, metal belt or othe
r
equipment for assembly battery may be the source for short circuit. Use effective
anti-short circuit measures. Do not use organic solvents or other chemical cleaners on battery. Do not disassembly
or decompose. Avoid contacting with water, avoid straight sunlight.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store in a cool and dry area, but prevent condensation on cell or battery terminals. High temperature may damage
the performance of the battery. Protect from physical damage and short circuits. To avoid risk of fire or explosion,
keep sparks and other sources of ignition away from the battery. Do not allow metal objects to simultaneously
contact both positive and negative terminal of batteries. Do not stack battery directly on another battery. Do not
store batteries on electrically conductive surfaces.
