=====================  Hazards Identification  =====================

LD50 LC50 Mixture:ORAL (RAT) IS UNKNOWN.
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NO	OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: ACID CAN CAUSE IRRITATION OF
    EYES, NOSE, THROAT.  BREATHING MIST PRODUCES RESPIRATORY
    DIFFICULTY, CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES CAUSE IRRITATION AND SKIN
    BURN.  CHRONIC: REPEATED CONTACT WITH SULF URIC ACID BATTERY
    ELECTROLYTE FLUID MAY CAUSE DRYING OF THE SKIN WHICH MAY RESULT IN
    IRRITATION AND DERMATITIS.	PROLONGED INHALATION OF A MIST OF
    SULFURIC ACID CAN CAUSE INFLAMMATION OF THE UPPER RES PIRATORY
    TRACT LEADING TO CHRONIC BRONCHITIS.  SHORT TERM LIQUID OR VAPOR
    CONTACT MAY RESULT IN EYE IRRITATION AND ACID BURNS.  PROLONGED
    CONTACT TO STRONG ACID FUMES MAY RESULT IN EROSION OF THE TEET H
    ENAMEL.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE.
Effects of Overexposure:LEAD EXPOSURE: MAY CAUSE LASSITUDE,
    CONSTIPATION, ANEMIA, NAUSEA, VOMITING, PARALYSIS AND CENTRAL
    NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSION. GREATER EXPOSURE COMES FROM DUST IN THE
    AIR AND ON HANDS WHEN CLEANING BATT ERY PARTS AND IF ANY INTERNAL
    MATERIALS ARE EXPOSED IF THE BATTERY IS OPENED OR BROKEN.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:SULFRIC ACID MIST CAUSES COUGHING
    AND WILL BURN EYES AND SKIN.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:SULFURIC ACID.  INHALATION: MOVE TO VENTILATED AREA.	OBTAIN
    MEDICAL ATTENTION.	EYES: WASH THE EYES WITH COPIOUS QUANTITIES OF
    RUNNING WATER FOR 15 MINTUES.  OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION.  SKIN:
    FLUSH AR EA WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF RUNNING WATER. REMOVE
    CONTAIMINATED CLOTHING AND OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION.  INGESTION:
    WASH OUT MOUTH WITH RUNNING WATER. GIVE MILK OR WATER TO DRINK.  DO
    NOT INDUCE VOMITING.   CALL PHYSICIAN.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Autoignition Temp:=357.2C, 675.F
Lower Limits:4.1(H*2)
Upper Limits:74.2 (H*2)
Extinguishing Media:HALON, DRY CHEMICAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures:LEAD/ACID BATTERIES DO NOT BURN, OR BURN WITH
    DIFFICULTY.  EXTINGUISH FIRE WITH AGENT SUITABLE FOR SURROUNDING
    COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.  COOL EXTERIOR OF BATTERY IF EXPOSED  TO
    PREVENT RUPTURE.  THE ACI D MIST AND VAPORS GENERATED BY HEAT OR
    FIRE ARE CORROSIVE.  WEAR RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SCBA) AND
    PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:HYDROGEN AND SULFURIC ACID VAPORS ARE
    GENERATED UPON OVERCHARGE.	VENTILATE CHARGING AREAS AS PER ACGIH
    INDUSTRIAL VENTILATION A MANUAL OF RECOMMENDED PRACTICE AND
    NATIONAL FIRE CODE, 1980 VOL I, P. 1 2, B-9, 10.  HYDROGEN GAS MAY
    BE FLAMMABLE OR EXPLOSIVE WHEN MIXED WITH AIR, OXYGEN, CHLORINE.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.  VENTILATE ENCLOSED
    AREAS.  DIKE TO CONTAIN CONTAMINATED MATERIALS AND LIQUIDS.  LIMIT
    SITE ACCESS TO EMERGENCY RESPONDERS.  NEUTRALIZE WITH SODIUM
    BICARBONATE, SODA ASH, LIM E OR OTHER NEUTRALIZING AGENT.
Neutralizing Agent:SODIUM BICARBONATE, SODA ASH (SODIUM CARBONATE),
    LIME OR OTHER NEUTRALIZING AGENTS.

======================	Handling and Storage  ======================

Handling and Storage Precautions:KEEP AWAY FROM FLAMES DURING AND
    IMMEDIATELY AFTER CHARGING.  STORE BATTERIES IN COOL, DRY, WELL
    VENTILATED AREA.  DO NO SHORT CIRCUIT BATTERY TERMINALS, OR REMOVE
    VENT CAPS DURING STORAGE OR RECHARGI NG.
Other Precautions:AVOID PROLONGED OVERCHARGE.  SODA BICARBONATE, SODA
    ASH, SAND OR LIME SHOULD BE KEPT ON-SITE FOR SPILL REMEDIATION. 
    COMBUSTION OR OVERCHARGING MAY CREATE OR LIBERATE TOXIC AND
    HAZARDOUS GASES AND LIQ UIDS INCLUDING HYDROGEN, SULFURIC ACID,
    SULFUR DIOXIDE, SULFUR TRIOXIDE, SCIBINE, ARSINE, AND SULFUR IC
    ACID.

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:SULFURIC ACID MIST - FULL FACE OR HALF MASK
    RESPIRATOR WITH ACID MIST FILTER OR SCBA.
Ventilation:CHANGE AIR EVERY 15 MINUTES.  LOCAL EXHAUST:  NO 
    MECHANICAL (GENERAL):  NO INFORMATION FOUND.
Protective Gloves:ACID RESISTANT RUBBER OR PLASTIC.
