Avoid contact with skin.
Neutralize the spilled material before disposal. Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in
suitable container for disposal. Dispose of waste and residues in accordance with local authority
requirements.
Prevent runoff from entering drains, sewers, or streams.
In the event of damage resulting in a leak of exposed materials, avoid contact with contents of an
open or damaged cell or battery. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Do not allow
conductive material to touch the battery terminals. A dangerous short-circuit may occur and cause
battery failure and fire.
Store in original tightly closed container. Protect containers from damage. Place cardboard
between layers of stacked batteries to avoid damage and short circuits.
