- When charging the
VRLA battery, use a dedicated
charger and follow our company's
charging conditions. Charging under
different conditions can cause the
battery to leak fluid, radiate heat
or explode.
- Do not use the
VRLA battery at a site that can get
moist or immersed in water. Doing so
can cause the battery's terminals to
corrode, an/or cause electrical
shock or fire.
- Take safety
measures, such as wearing rubber
gloves, when the voltage from
connecting the VRLA battery in a
series of 45 volts or greater.
- Make sure you
connect VRLA batteries by their
proper polarity. Connecting the
battery in the wrong polarity can
cause fire or damage to the charger.
- Never connect the
VRLA battery directly to a power
supply socket or an automobile's
cigarette lighter without using a
charger as a medium. Connecting the
battery directly can cause the
battery to leak fluid, generate
heat, explode, cause fires or bodily
burns and injuries.
- Do not incinerate
or do not apply heat to the battery.
VRLA batteries may burst if thrown
into a fire.
- Do not
disassemble, modify or destroy the
battery. Doing so can cause fluid
leakage, heat generation or
explosion.
- Before cleaning
or checking the VRLA battery, make
sure you release your body's static
electricity by touching a metal
object or other effective measures.
Also, do not use a dry cloth or
duster to clean the storage battery.
Always use a cloth that contains an
adequate amount of moisture. Sparks
created by static electricity can
cause the storage battery to trigger
an explosion.
- Replace the VRLA
battery at or before the time
indicated in the user's manual or on
the battery. Usage beyond the
required time of service can cause
fluid leakage due to damages to the
container, or cause fire due to
power leakage.
-
VRLA batteries
contains dilute sulfuric acid which
is a toxic substance. If the
battery's internal fluid leaks out
and gets onto your skin or clothing,
make sure it is washed off with
clean water. Additionally, if the
fluid gets in your eyes, wash them
with clean water immediately, and
see a doctor. When dilute sulfuric
acid gets in your eyes, it can cause
a loss of eyesight, and when it gets
on your skin, it can cause a burn on
your skin.
