the skin, flush immediately with plenty of water.
In case of contact with the eyes, flush with plenty
of water for at least 15 minutes. Immediately

If the electrolyte is accidentally swallowed, drink
large quantities of water or milk, and then milk of
magnesia or vegetable oil. Immediately consult a
health professional. The battery gives off noxious
and explosive gases; keep it away from cigarettes,
flames, sparks and any other source of heat.
During the recharging or the use, make sure that
the room is properly ventilated and avoid inhaling
the gases released during the recharging. KEEP
AWAY FROM CHILDREN. Do not tip the vehicle too
much, or tip the battery too much, to avoid
electrolyte leaking out.
The battery liquid is corrosive. Do not pour or
sprinkle it, particularly on plastic parts. When the
battery has been removed it must be placed in a
