Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The cell may
explode. Check with local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.

trolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes
or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

the battery with conducting materials such as rings,
bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may
overheat and cause burns.

a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but
less than 100°F, To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.

then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid
gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at
least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical atten­
tion, Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious
personal injury.
