2. Wearing eye protection and rubber gloves.
3. Avoiding breathing fumes when electrolyte is
added.
4. Avoiding spilling or dripping electrolyte.
5. Use proper jump start procedure.

• If you spill acid on yourself:

1. Flush your skin with water.
2. Apply baking soda or lime to help neutralize the
acid.
3. Flush your eyes with water for 15-30 minutes.
4. Get medical attention immediately.
