Skin Absorption EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF USE. In the event of overcharging or damage to the unit, exposure to organic electrolyte solution/mist is possible. Extreme exposures to the organic electrolyte can be absorbed through the skin. Eye Contact EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF USE. Sulfuric Acid: Severe irritation, burns, cornea damage, and blindness. Lead Compounds: May cause eye irritation.

Lead Compounds: Lead is listed as a Group 2A- carcinogen, likely in animals at extreme doses. Per the guidance found in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200 Appendix F, this is approximately equivalent to GHS Category 1A. Proof of carcinogenicity in humans is lacking at present. IARC Monographs. Overall Evaluation of Carcinogenicity Lead (CAS 7439-92-1) 2A Probably carcinogenic to humans. Lead oxide (CAS 1309-60-0) 2A Probably carcinogenic to humans. Lead sulfate (CAS 7446-14-2) 2A Probably carcinogenic to humans.
