Section VI - Health Hazard Data
Other Effects of Repeated (Chronic) Exposure: 
Repeated overexposures to cadmium may result in lung cancer; lung, kidney, and liver dysfunction; skeletal disease
(e.g., osteoporosis) and reproductive toxicity. Chronic overexposure to nickel may result in cancer; dermal contact
may result in dermatitis in sensitive individuals.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: 
A knowledge of the available toxicology information and of the physical and chemical properties of the material
suggests that overexposure in unlikely to aggravate existing medical conditions.
Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
Swallowing: 
Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately.
Skin: 
If the internal cell materials of an opened battery cell comes into contact with the skin, immediately flush with water
for at least 15 minutes.
Inhalation: 
If potential for exposure to cadmium or nickel fumes or dusts occurs, remove immediately to fresh air and seek
medical attention.
Eyes: 
If the contents from an opened battery comes into contact with the eyes, immediately flush eyes with water
continuously for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
The batteries are stable under normal operating conditions.
Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
Hazardous decomposition products: oxides of cadmium and nickel.
Conditions to avoid: heat, open flames, sparks, and moisture.
Potential incompatibilities (i.e., materials to avoid contact with): The battery cells are encased in a non-reactive container;
however, if the container is breached, avoid contact of internal battery components with acids, aldehydes, and carbamate
compounds.
Section VII - Health Hazard Data
Spill and leaks are unlikely because cells are contained in an hermetically-sealed case. If the battery case is breached, don
protective clothing that is impervious to caustic materials and absorb or pack spill residues in inert material. Dispose of as a
hazardous waste in accordance with applicable state and federal regulations. Resultant spill residues may be characterized
as D002 (caustic) and D006 (cadmium) pursuant to the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). See
Section IV for response to fires or explosions.
