CAUSTIC CHEMICALS IN BATTERIES
Serious injury could occur from the careless
handling of storage batteries or battery electrolyte
(acid). If acid is splashed on the skin, wash the
affected area immediately with plenty of clean
water. If acid is splashed in the eyes, wash
immediately with plenty of clean water and get
medical attention.
CAUTION
Avoid making contact across the two battery posts.
This can result in severe arcing.
NOTE
Use distilled water or a good grade drinking water
(excluding mineral water) to bring electrolyte to
proper level.
Check electrolyte level. If low, add water to split
rings (1).
