Battery Safety
- Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable about batteries and required precautions.
- When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of batteries or battery packs.
- Failed batteries can reach temperatures that exceed the burn thresholds for touchable surfaces.
- CAUTION: Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
- CAUTION: Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released material is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic.
- CAUTION: A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short-circuit current. The following precautions should be observed when installing or replacing batteries:
- Disconnect the charging source prior to connecting of disconnecting terminals.
- Do not wear any metal objects including wrist watches and rings. Remove conductive jewelry such as chains, wrist watches and rings. High energy through conductive materials could cause severe burns.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
- Use tools with insulated handles.
- Wear rubber gloves and boots.
- Determine if battery is either intentionally or inadvertently grounded. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electric shock and burns by high short-circuit current. The risk of such hazards can be reduced if grounds are removed during installation and maintenance by a skilled person.
