from escaping electrolytic so-
lution! After eye/skin contact,
rinse the affected areas with
water or a neutraliser and
consult a doctor.
Charge the battery in a dry room
only.
There is a risk of injury due to elec-

charging times would be a waste
of energy. Excessive charging will
void the warranty.
