the battery, always shield your face and
protect your eyes. Always provide correct
ventilation. Keep batteries out of reach of
children. Batteries contain sulfuric
acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or
clothing. Shield your eyes when working
near the battery to protect against possible
splashing of acid solution. In case of acid
contact with skin or eyes, flush

15 minutes and get prompt medical
attention. If acid is swallowed, call a
physician immediately. Use only adequatly sized cables with
insulated clamps.
