immediately.
If electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush with water for at
least 15 minutes and SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION

The battery contains harmful materials. Always
keep children away from the battery whether
or not it
is fitted
in the motorcycle.
Do not attach jump leads to the battery, touch the
battery cables together

which would ignite battery gases causing a risk of
