SECTION 4:First Aid Measures
Ingestion: Swallowing may lead to serious injury or death in as little as 2 hours due to chemical burns and potential
of the esophagus. IMMEDATELY SEE DOCTOR; Do not induce vomiting or give food or drink.
Inhalation :Provide fresh air and seek medical attention.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with soap and water. If a chemical burn occurs of if
irritation persists, seek medical attention.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower lids, until no
evidence of the chemical remains. Seek medical attention.
SECTION 5:Fire-Fighting Measures
In case of fire where lithium batteries are present, flood area with water or smother with a Class D fire
extinguishant appropriate for lithium metal, such as lith-X. Water may not extinguish burning batteries but will cool
the adjacent batteries and control the spread of fire. Burning batteries will burn themselves out. Virtually all fires
involving lithium batteries can be controlled by flooding with water. However, the contents of the battery will react with
water and form hydrogen gas. In a confined space, hydrogen gas can from an explosive mixture. In this
situation, smothering agents are recommended. A smothering agent will extinguish burning lithium batteries.
Emergency Responders should wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Burning lithium manganese dioxide
battery produce toxic and corrosive lithium hydroxide fumes.
SECTION 6:Accidental Release Measures
Ventilation Requirements: Room ventilation may be required in areas where there are open or leaking batteries.
Respiratory Protection : Avoid exposure to electrolyte fumes from open or leaking batteries.
Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields if handling an open or leaking battery.
Gloves: Use neoprene or natural rubber gloves if handling an open or leaking battery.Battery materials should be
collected in a leak-proof container.
SECTION 7:Handling and storage
Storage : Store in a cool, well ventilated area. Elevated temperatures can result in shortened battery life.In locations
that handle large quantities of lithium batteries, such as warehouse, lithium batteries should be isolated from
unnecessary combustible.
Mechanical Containment: If potting or sealing the battery in an airtight or watertight container is required, consult your
Tuobu Battery Limited representative for precautionary suggestions.Do not obstruct safety release vents on
batteries.Encapsulation of batteries will not allow cell venting and can cause high pressure rupture.
