Section 4 - First Aid Measures
Skin touch: Remove contaminated clothing and flush effected areas with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Wash with
soap and water.
Eyes touch: Flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes if abuse causes safety vents to activate. Get immediate medical
attention.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Give oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. Get immediate medical attention.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Dilute by giving water. If available give several glasses of mild. Get immediate medical
attention. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Danger characteristic: Electrolyte solution is corrosive to all human tissues. It will react violently with many organic chemicals,
especially nitro carbons and chlorocarbons. Electrolyte solution reacts with zinc, aluminum and other active materials,
releasing flammable hydrogen gas.
Cadmium fumes may be released when batteries are subjected to high temperature. In case of fire, do not take in smoke and
fume.
Extinguishing Media: Use water foam or dry powder, as appropriate
Fire-Fighting method & media: As with any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus to avoid inhalation of hazardous
decomposition products. Put out the fire in the upwind direction. Remove the container to the open space as soon as possible.
Sparying water on the containers in the fireplace to keep them cool until finish extinguishment. Flush with water and neutralize
with dilute vitriol. In case of fire, it is permitted to use any class of extinguishing medium on those batteries or the packing
material. Cool exterior of batteries if exposed to fire to prevent rupture.
Fire fighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
