EMERGENCY STARTING

WARNING: Hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced during normal battery operation. This gas mixture can explode if sources of combustion (e.g. flames, sparks or lighted tobacco etc.) are brought near the battery. When charging or using a battery in an enclosed space, always ensure ventilation and wear eye protection (goggles etc.).

WARNING: Keep dangerous substances out of the reach of children. Batteries contain sulphuric acid; avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. If handling batteries, wear a protective industrial apron and gloves and wear safety goggles to protect against possible splashing of acid solution. In case of acid contacting with skin, eyes, or clothing; flush immediately with water for a minimum of fifteen minutes. If acid is swallowed, drink large quantities of milk or water, followed by milk of magnesia, a beaten egg, or vegetable oil. SEEK MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATELY.
