of chemical burns! If electrolyte comes into contact with your
skin or clothing, these spots must be rinsed immediately with
water. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them immediately
with clean water and consult a doctor. Please bear this in
mind and also consider our environment. Do not throw used
batteries into the normal household waste, but hand the
batteries over to hazardous waste facilities or hazardous waste
collection centers.
