SECTION 4 – First Aid Measures
Ingestion: Swallowing may lead to serious injury or death in as little as 2 hours due to chemical burns and potential
of the esophagus. IMMEDATELY SEE DOCTOR; Do not induce vomiting or give food or drink.
Inhalation : Provide fresh air and seek medical attention.
Skin Contact : Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with soap and water
Eye Contact : Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower lids, until
no evidence of the chemical remains. Seek medical attention.
SECTION 5 –Control Fire Measures
In case of fire where lithium batteries are present, flood area with water or smother with a Class D fire extinguishant
appropriate for lithium metal, such as lith-X. Water may not extinguish burning batteries but will cool the adjacent
batteries and control the spread of fire. Burning batteries will burn themselves out. Virtually all fires involving lithium
batteries can be controlled by flooding with water. However, the contents of the battery will react with water and
form hydrogen gas. In a confined space, hydrogen gas can from an explosive mixture. In this situation,
smothering agents are recommended. A smothering agent will extinguish burning lithium batteries.
Emergency Responders should wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Burning lithium manganese dioxide
battery produce toxic and corrosive lithium hydroxide fumes.
SECTION 6 – Accidental Release or Spillage
Ventilation Requirements: Room ventilation may be required in areas where there are open or leaking batteries
Respiratory Protection : Avoid exposure to electrolyte fumes from open or leaking batteries
Eye Protection: Water safety glasses with side shields if handling an open or leaking batteries
Gloves: Use neoprene or natural rubber gloves if handling an open or leaking batteries, battery materials should be
collected in a leak-proof container.
SECTION IX – Safety Warning for Swallowed Hazardous
Keep out of reach of children. Swallowing may lead to serious injury or death in as little as 2 hours due
to chemical burns and potential perforation of the esophagus. Immediately see doctor or ring
LOCAL EMERGENCY CALL. Keep in original package until ready to use. Dispose of used batteries
