Section 4 - First Aid Measures
 General Advice
The chemicals in this product are contained in a sealed package. Exposure to the contents will not occur
unless the battery leaks, is exposed to high temperatures or is mechanically, physically, or electrically
abused.
 Eye
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get
medical aid.
 Skin
Remove contaminated clothes and rinse skin with plenty of water or shower for 15 minutes. Get medical aid.

 Ingestion
Give at least 2 glasses of milk or water. Induce vomiting unless patient is unconscious. Call a physician.
 Note to Physician
Published reports recommend removal from the esophagus be done endoscopically (under direct
visualization). Batteries beyond the esophagus need not be retrieved unless there are signs of injury to the GI
tract or a large diameter battery fails to pass the pylorus. If asymptomatic, follow up x rays are necessary
only to confirm the passage of larger batteries. Confirmation by stool inspection is preferable under most
circumstances. Potential leakage of less than 50 milligrams of dimethoxyethane and propylene carbonate.
Dimethoxyethane rapidly evaporates. Do not give ipecac.

.
 Special Fire-Fighting Procedures
Self-contained breathing apparatus.
 Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards
Cell may vent when subjected to excessive heat-exposing battery contents.
 Hazardous Combustion Products
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, lithium oxide fumes.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
 Steps to be Taken in case Material is Released or Spilled
If the battery material is released, remove personnel from area until fumes dissipate. Provide maximum
ventilation to clear out hazardous gases. Wipe it up with a cloth, and dispose of it in a plastic bag and put into
a steel can. The preferred response is to leave the area and allow the battery to cool and vapors to dissipate.
Provide maximum ventilation. Avoid skin and eye contact or inhalation of vapors. Remove spilled liquid with
absorbent and incinerate.
 Waste Disposal Method
It is recommended to discharge the battery to the end, handing in the abandoned batteries to related
