2. Hazards identifications 
General advice: The common known rules for handling of chemicals should be obeyed. These chemicals 
are contained in a sealed steel can. For consumer use, adequate hazard warnings are 
printed on both the package and the battery. Potential for exposure should not exist unless 
the battery leaks, is exposed to high temperatures or is mechanically or electrically abused. 
Concentrated potassium hydroxide contained is caustic. Anticipated potential leakage of 
potassium hydroxide is 2-20 ml, depending on battery size. Do not eat and drink batteries. 
Keep batteries away from small children. 
Physical-Chemical Hazards: This preparation is not classified as dangerous according to the criteria of 
directive 99/45/EEC. 
Hazards to man: If battery leaking, exposure to caustic ingredients may occur. Therefore, may cause 
sensitization by skin contract. 
Hazards to environment: N.A..
