Section 2 - Hazards Identification

Emergency Overview
Not considered dangerous as manufactured. If battery is damaged, exposure to product components may cause eye,
skin and respiratory tract irritation. Combustion products from a fire involving batteries may be harmful.

Potential Health Effects: Eyes


None anticipated under normal product use and handling conditions. If battery is damaged, exposure may cause
severe irritation or burns.

Potential Health Effects: Skin


None anticipated under normal product use and handling conditions. If battery is damaged, exposure may cause
severe irritation or burns.

Potential Health Effects: Ingestion


Not considered a likely route of exposure under normal product use and handling conditions. Ingestion of material
from a damaged battery may cause serious burns to mouth, esophagus, and gastrointestinal tract.

Potential Health Effects: Inhalation


None anticipated under normal product use and handling conditions. If battery is damaged, exposure to vapors or
mist may cause respiratory irritation.
