Batteriesmayruptureorleakifinvolvedinafire.
Useanyextinguishingmediaappropriateforthesurroundingarea.Forincipient
(beginning)fires,carbondioxideextinguishersorcopiousamountsofwaterare
effectiveincoolingburninglithiummetalbatteries.Iffireprogressestowherelithium
metalisexposed(deepredflames),useaClassDextinguishersuitableforlithiummetal.

Removecontaminatedclothingandflushskinwithrunningwaterforatleast15
minutes.Seekmedicalattentionifirritationpersists.
Contentsofleakingbatterymaybeirritatingtorespiratorypassages.Movetofreshair.
Seekmedicalattentionifirritationpersists.
Flushwithrunningwaterforatleast30minutes.Seekmedicalattentionimmediately.
Storebatteriesinadryplaceatnormalroomtemperature.Refrigerationdoesnotmake

Batteries
FirstAid‐EyeContact
Largequantitiesofbatteriesinvolvedinafirewillruptureandreleaseirritatingfumes
fromthermaldegradation
UseaClass“D”fireextinguisherorothersmotheringagentsuchasLith‐X,copper
powderordrysand.Ifusingwater,useenoughtosmotherthefire.Usinganinsufficient
amountofwaterwillmakethefireworse.Coolingexteriorofbatterieswillhelpprevent
rupturing.Burningbatteriesgeneratetoxicandcorrosivelithiumhydroxidefumes.
Firefightersshouldwearself‐containedbreathingapparatus.Detailedinformationon

BatterySafetyStandards&Testing DuracelllithiumcoincellbatteriesmeettherequirementsofANSIC18.3MPart2and
IEC60086‐4.Thesestandardsspecifytestsandrequirementsforlithumprimarycells
andbatteriestoensuresafeoperationundernormaluseandreasonablyforeseeable
misuse.Thetestregimesassessthreeconditionsofsafety.Theseare:
1‐Intendedusesimulation:
Partialuse,vibration,thermalshock,andmechanical
shock
2‐Reasonablyforeseeablemisuse:
Incorrectinstallation,externalshort‐circuit,freefall
(user‐drop),over‐discharge,andcrush
3‐Designconsideration:
Thermalabuse,moldstress
PrecautionaryStatements CAUTION:Keepbatteriesawayfromchildren.Ifswallowed,consultaphysicianatonce.

disassembled,shorted,recharged,exposedtofireorhightemperatureorinserted
incorrectly.Keepinoriginalpackageuntilreadytouse.Donotcarrybatteriesloosein
yourpocketorpurse.
