First Aid; General Safety - Briggs & Stratton 883251 Anweisungen

First Aid

Each battery cell contains chemical materials that are stored in a hermetically sealed
container designed to withstand temperatures and pressures encountered during normal
use. As a result, during normal use, there is no physical danger of ignition or explosion and
chemical danger of hazardous materials' leakage.
However, if exposed to a fire, added mechanical shocks, decomposed or added electric
stress by miss-use, then hazardous materials maybe released. If this occurs please do the
following:
Do not make contact with the leaking substance. If contact is made by a person apply the
appropriate first aid as listed below:
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Seek medical attention if not breathing or
breathing problems develops.
Skin Contact: In case of skin contact, immediately remove contaminated clothing and
wash affected areas with water and soap. Seek medical attention.

Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Seek medical
attention..
