Keep batteries out of reach of children.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid that is
highly corrosive. Do not allow acid to
contact your eyes, skin, or clothing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush your eyes
with clean water for at least 15 minutes
and get immediate medical attention. If
acid gets on your skin, thoroughly wash
the area. If you feel pain or a burning
sensation, get medical attention
immediately.
• Lift a battery with a battery carrier or
with your hands on opposite corners.
When lifting a plastic-cased battery,
excessive pressure on the case may
cause battery acid to leak.

vehicle if your battery is frozen.
• NEVER attempt to recharge the battery
when the vehicle’s battery cables are
connected to the battery.

with high voltage. NEVER touch these
