2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

Emergency Overview

NOTE: Under normal conditions of battery use, internal components will not present a health hazard. The following information is
provided for battery acid and lead exposure that may occur during battery production or container breakage or under extreme heat
conditions such as fire.
In case of rupture:
Corrosive
The product causes burns of eyes, skin and mucous membranes
Appearance: No information available.
Physical State: Solid.
Odor: Odorless

Potential Health Effects

Principle Routes of Exposure Skin contact.

Acute Toxicity
Eyes Corrosive to the eyes and may cause severe damage including blindness.
Skin Causes burns.
Inhalation Harmful by inhalation. Contact with moist mucous membranes of the respiratory system can cause caustic condition
resulting in burns.
Ingestion Harmful if swallowed. Can burn mouth, throat, and stomach.
Chronic Effects
Lead compounds may be absorbed by ingestion, by inhalation and through the skin. Lead may damage kidney function, the blood
forming system and the reproductive system. Avoid repeated exposure.
Main Symptoms
Severe exposures can lead to shock, circulatory collapse, and death Lead poisoning is characterized by a metallic taste in the mouth,
loss of appetite indigestion, nausea, vomiting, constipation, sleep disturbances and overall weakness.
Aggravated Medical Conditions None known.

Environment Hazard See Section 12 for additional Ecological Information

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

General Advice
First aid is upon rupture of sealed battery.
Eye Contact
Immediate medical attention is required. Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes.
Keep eye wide open while rinsing. Do not rub affected area.
Skin Contact
Immediate medical attention is required. Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water removing all contaminated clothes
and shoes.
Inhalation
Move to fresh air. Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen.
Ingestion
Immediate medical attention is required. Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. Drink
plenty of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Remove from exposure, lie down.
Notes to Physician
Treat symptomatically.
Protection of First-aiders
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Flammable Properties
Not flammable.
Flash Point
Not determined.
Suitable Extinguishing Media
Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Uniform Fire Code
Corrosive: Acid-Liquid
Hazardous Combustion Products
Hazardous metal fumes and oxides.
