CORROSIVE.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NOT RELEVANT.
Effects of Overexposure:IRRITATION OF SKIN OR EYES. LITHIUM CAN CAUSE
THERMAL & CHEMICAL BURNS UPON CONTACT WITH SKIN. DIMETHOXY ETHER
MAY BE A REPRODUCTIVE HAZARD.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:AN ACUTE EXPOSURE WILL NOT
GENERALLY AGGRAVATE ANY MEDICAL CONDITION.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:IN CASE OF CONTACT WITH CONTENTS OF BATTERY: SKIN: FLUSH
